T Management Continuing Education Program
Our History
T Management’s Continuing Education Program was revitalized in late 2021 following the COVID-19 pandemic. While the program has been around for over 13 years, this new version strives to allow all our providers and staff to keep their skills sharp, introduce them to new content, and provide them with a sense of community within our organization. For the first time in program history, as of April 1, 2023, T Management is a Pace-Approved Continuing Education Program, allowing us to expand the depth of our course content and truly enhance the overall quality of our program. The program’s goal hasn’t changed significantly over the years, but recently it has taken on the more encompassing intention of ensuring our providers are truly some of the best in the Atlanta area. Below are some of the overall goals the program aims to achieve to ensure this is possible:
- Provide one In-Person Education Event every fiscal quarter for up to 3 CE Credits
- Provide eight In-Person Education Events every two years, totaling up to 24 CE Credits
- Partner with only top-industry-standard and accredited vendors
- Ensure all AGD Pace Guidelines are upheld
- Provide a sense of community for all our providers through In-Person Events
While the program is still young in nature, it has already proven to be a success, and we are looking to build on a strong 2022 and make 2023 our most educational year yet!
