A child’s brain is not a small adult brain, and concussion management that ignores the difference gets the timeline wrong. Neurology 212 starts with developmental neurology — the brain maturation milestones that determine when a young nervous system is most vulnerable to injury and how quickly it recovers.
From there the course takes up the differences that actually change management: the distinct impact and recovery patterns seen in boys versus girls, the protective role of neck strength and cervical spine alignment, and the current consensus guidelines for both Return-to-Play and Return-to-Learn — two separate decisions that are too often collapsed into one.
Choose Your Neurology Path — Three Lanes, One Curriculum
The Neurology series runs from what you can measure at the bedside, through the brain systems that explain the findings, to the structures a chiropractor actually treats and the risks worth screening for. Courses 201–220 are built out here, within a larger clinical-neurology curriculum; each is two hours.
1 · Assessment and Clinical Reasoning (203, 208, 210, 211, 213)
What you measure in the room and what it means — oximetry, vital signs, reflexes and the neurology tests worth the chair time — ending in three worked cases.
203: Pulse Oximetry in Chiropractic
208: Vital Signs for Chiropractors
210: Chiropractic Clinical Case Studies
211: Reflex Assessment in Chiropractic
213: Neurology Tests for Chiropractors
2 · Brain Systems and Function (202, 204–206, 218)
The cortical and cerebellar files: what chronic pain does to the brain, how the pyramidal system governs tone and symmetry, what the frontal lobes and cerebellum contribute, and what “tone” actually means neurologically.
202: Pain & the Central Nervous System
204: Clinical Aspects of the Pyramidal Man
205: Functional Neurology & Frontal Lobes
206: Functional Neurology & the Cerebellum
218: Chiropractic Perspectives on Tone
3 · Spine, Balance and Craniocervical (201, 207, 209, 219)
Where neurology meets the structures a chiropractor treats — the cord, the vestibular apparatus, the craniocervical junction, and the autonomic pathway linking the neck to blood pressure.
201: Chiropractic Myelopathy Management
207: Exploring the Vestibular System
209: Guzay’s Theorem & Craniocervical Neurology
219: Cervicogenic Hypertension
4 · Brain Health, Injury and Risk (212, 214–217, 220)
The public-health end of clinical neurology: concussion in children and teenagers, movement and mood, dopamine and Parkinson’s, fitness as a clinical measure, and stroke risk. You are here: Neurology 212.
212: Pediatric Concussion Management
214: Depression and Exercise
215: Dopamine, Parkinson’s & Chiropractic
216: Is Fitness Important to Health?
217: The Concussed Teen and Return to Learn
220: Chiropractic Stroke Risk Assessment
Every course in the series is 2 PACE-approved CE hours at $40, and the automatic bundle discounts apply across the whole lane.
What You'll Learn in Neurology 212
Explain brain maturation milestones and how developmental stage governs a child’s susceptibility to concussive injury.
Analyse the differential impact and recovery patterns of concussion in boys versus girls.
Apply management strategies centred on neck strength, cervical spine alignment and pediatric-specific prevention.
Implement current consensus guidelines for Return-to-Play and Return-to-Learn as two distinct clinical decisions.

Where Neurology CE Hours Count — State Rules Worth Knowing
Clinical neurology coursework is clinical subject matter — assessment, diagnosis and case management — which is exactly what several state boards ask for. In Iowa, these hours serve the 36-hour clinical case-management minimum; in Rhode Island, they address the 50-of-60 clinical requirement; and in Vermont — where practice-building coursework earns nothing — patient-care education like this counts fully under the clinical-focus rule.
Online-format allowances still vary by state — some accept every hour online, others cap distance learning or require in-person blocks. Check your state's guide in the full state directory before building your renewal plan.
Build Your Neurology Block
Every course in the Neurology series runs 2 hours at $40, so the automatic discounts do the bundling for you: 6–9 hours in one order earns 10% off, and 10 or more earns 20% off — courses 201–210 together are 20 hours, well past the 20% tier at roughly $320 instead of $400. The full Chiropractic Clinical Neurology (CCN) 201–224 bundle runs 48 hours if you are working toward the certification. This course pairs directly with 217 The Concussed Teen and Return to Learn, which takes the cognitive-recovery half into adolescence and the classroom. 211 Reflex Assessment in Chiropractic and 213 Neurology Tests for Chiropractors supply the examination tools these decisions rest on.

Neurology 212 — Frequently Asked Questions
What does Neurology 212 cover?
Concussion in the developing brain: brain maturation milestones and their role in injury susceptibility, the differential impact and recovery patterns seen in boys versus girls, management strategies centred on neck strength and cervical spine alignment, and the current consensus guidelines for Return-to-Play and Return-to-Learn.
How many CE hours is this course, and what does it cost?
2 PACE-approved CE hours for $40, or $20 per hour. Ordering 6–9 hours at once takes 10% off automatically and 10 or more takes 20% off — no promo codes.
What is the difference between Return-to-Play and Return-to-Learn?
They are two separate clearances. Return-to-Play governs physical activity and sport; Return-to-Learn governs the cognitive load of the classroom — focus, memory and mental fatigue. A child can be ready for one and not the other, which is exactly why the course treats them as distinct decisions with distinct criteria.
Does concussion affect boys and girls differently?
The research says yes, in both impact profile and recovery trajectory, and the course works through what that difference implies for management and expected timelines rather than applying one protocol to every young patient.
Will this course count toward my state CE requirement?
In most states, yes — this is clinical patient-care subject matter, and it is PACE-approved and co-sponsored by Texas Chiropractic College. Online-format allowances and clinical-hour minimums vary, so check your state guide in the full state directory before you build your renewal plan.
State Approval and Licensing Reminder
Continuing education requirements — including online-hour caps and clinical-hour minimums — vary by jurisdiction. Review the online chiropractic CE guidelines page and contact CCEDseminars with questions about your specific licensing requirements before registering.
