Pre-Conference Workshops (Optional Add-Ons)

There will be two Pre-Conference Workshops:

 

Thursday April 23 – 12:00 – 5:00 pm 

From Surface to Subungual: A Practical Dermoscopy for Toenail Disorders - Dr. Kendall Billick

This immersive pre conference workshop introduces attendees to practical dermoscopy skills using the DE 400 dermatoscope—a versatile, polarized and non polarized device ideal for clinical skin assessment. Participants will learn core dermoscopic principles, image interpretation basics, and how to integrate dermoscopy into routine chiropody practice for improved lesion monitoring and early detection.

Each attendee will train with the same DE 400 model used in the session, ensuring confidence and familiarity with its features, including dual mode lighting, 10× magnification, and universal smartphone/tablet compatibility.

A limited number of units will be available for purchase at a significantly reduced price, allowing clinicians to leave fully equipped to implement dermoscopy in their offices the following week. See details below.

 

Thursday April 23 – 6:00 – 9:00 pm

CPR Recertification

The Healthcare Provider Level C CPR recertification training program is a hands-on training course designed for medical professionals and students who need to respond confidently in emergency situations.

Participants learn how to recognize cardiac and breathing emergencies, perform high-quality chest compressions and rescue breaths, use an automated external defibrillator (AED), and work effectively as part of a team.

The course focuses on practical skills to prepare healthcare providers to act quickly and safely when every second counts.
