The CCEDseminars athletic injuries curriculum works the way sports injuries actually present: by mechanism. Eight sport-specific courses — basketball, swimming, hockey, weight lifting, football, triathlon, golf, and racquet sports — teach the injury patterns each sport's demands produce, while dedicated coursework covers sideline emergency procedures, dehydration and heat illness, and the hand, thumb, shoulder, and exercise injuries that cross every sport.

Active patients don't wait for a sports-medicine referral — they bring their rotator cuff, their turf toe, and their overtraining syndrome to the chiropractor they already see. This category is built for that reality: evaluation and diagnosis by sport mechanism, evidence-informed treatment planning, return-to-activity progression, and the field-readiness a DC needs when covering events. Faculty include a Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Board of Sports Practitioners and a certified sports-medicine chiropractor — doctors who work the sidelines they teach about.

Choose Your Sports CE Path — Three Lanes

Cross-sport anatomy and the general active population — the injuries every practice sees regardless of season.

New athletic injury courses are added to these lanes as faculty release them — the course grid below always shows the current catalog.

What You'll Learn

• Sport-by-sport injury mechanisms and evaluation — how basketball, swimming, hockey, lifting, football, triathlon, golf, and racquet demands each produce their signature injury patterns.

• Evidence-informed treatment planning and rehabilitation principles for athletic populations, from weekend competitors to trained athletes.

• Return-to-play reasoning and injury risk reduction — the progression judgment that separates recovery from re-injury.

• Sideline preparedness: emergency procedures, dehydration and heat illness recognition, and the DC's role within sports medicine and training environments.

Your Sports Medicine Faculty

Donald Ozello, DC, CCN, CCSM authors the sport-specific core — nine courses spanning basketball through racquet sports — as a certified sports-medicine chiropractor who also leads our Adjusting & Manual Therapy curriculum. His courses read the sport first: the movement demands, the loading patterns, and the injuries they predict.

Dennis O'Hara, DC, DACBSP brings the sports specialty's board credential — Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Board of Sports Practitioners — to the highest-stakes coursework: emergency procedures for the sideline physician and athletic injuries of the shoulder.

Michael Hall, DC, FIACN examines football's turf toe with a chiropractic neurologist's precision, and Howard Benedikt, DC, DCBCN — board-certified in clinical nutrition — teaches dehydration and heat illness where physiology and field safety meet.

Where Athletic Injury Hours Count

Athletic injury coursework is clinical subject matter — assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation — which serves the clinical-hour structures many states impose: Iowa's 36-hour clinical case-management minimum, Rhode Island's 50-of-60 clinical requirement, and Vermont's clinical-focus rule, where practice-building coursework earns nothing but patient-care education like this counts fully.

Online-format allowances vary by jurisdiction — some states accept all hours online, others cap distance learning. Check your state's guide in the full state directory before building your renewal plan.

Build Your Sports CE Block

Every course is 2 hours at $40, so the automatic discounts stack naturally: three courses (6 hours) earns 10% off, five or more (10+ hours) in one order earns 20% off — a full lane, your patient roster's sports, or the complete 26-hour series at roughly $416 instead of $520. No promo codes; the discount calculates itself at checkout.

Athletic Injury CE — Frequently Asked Questions
What do the athletic injury courses cover?

Sport-specific injury evaluation and management across basketball, swimming, hockey, weight lifting, football, triathlon, golf, and racquet sports — plus sideline emergency procedures, dehydration and heat illness, hand and thumb injuries, athletic shoulder injuries, and general exercise injuries. Each course pairs mechanism-based evaluation with evidence-informed treatment and return-to-activity planning.

Which course should I start with?

Match your patient roster: pick the sports your active patients actually play from the Sport by Sport lane. Doctors covering games or events should prioritize the Sideline & Safety lane — emergency procedures and heat illness — and the Region & Recovery lane serves every practice regardless of season. The pathway map above shows the current course in each lane.

Do athletic injury hours count as clinical CE for my state?

Athletic injury coursework is clinical subject matter — assessment, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation — which serves clinical-hour minimums like Iowa's and Rhode Island's and clinical-focus rules like Vermont's. Online-format allowances still vary by jurisdiction; verify your state's online cap in its guide before registering.

Who teaches these courses?

Sports-credentialed clinician faculty: Donald Ozello, DC, CCN, CCSM — certified sports-medicine chiropractor — authors the sport-specific core; Dennis O'Hara, DC, DACBSP — Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Board of Sports Practitioners — teaches sideline emergency procedures and shoulder injuries; Michael Hall, DC, FIACN and Howard Benedikt, DC, DCBCN round out the roster. All courses are PACE Provider #34015544 programs co-sponsored by Texas Chiropractic College.

How do discounts and certificates work?
