Our mission and vision
A.T. Still University’s Continuing Education department is dedicated to preparing highly competent professionals, with a commitment to collaborative learner-centered education, continuing the osteopathic heritage, and focusing on whole person healthcare. In fulfillment of this mission, we strive to educate physicians and other members of the care team on evidence-based content relevant to their practice, contributing to improvements in knowledge and/or clinical performance, which positively affects patient outcomes.
ATSU fulfills a need by helping healthcare professionals keep abreast of changes in healthcare, as well as by providing a mechanism for maintenance of licensure.
