Ekso Bionics (NASDAQ: EKSO) has announced the launch of eksoUniversity, a new platform providing continuing education (CE) courses to physical therapists (PTs) and physical therapy assistants (PTAs) across the U.S.
Most states require healthcare professionals to complete a predetermined number of continuing education units (CEUs) within each license renewal cycle. The goal of this requirement is to maintain competency in fields that are constantly evolving. This allows providers to stay up-to-date on treatments, techniques, and technologies to provide the best care for their patients.
eksoUniversity offers a growing library of online courses targeted towards PTs and PTAs who work with patients who have neurological conditions. These courses are currently approved for CEUs in morethan 30 states and can be accessed on-demand for learners.
In a statement, Scott Davis, CEO of Ekso Bionics, commented, “We are excited to offer this platform for both current users of exoskeletons and other PTs and PTAs. While we believe this platform can generate incremental revenue for us, the greater value is represented through the programs’ ability to educate the neurological physical therapy community on a wide-range of relevant topics and ever-evolving patient treatment options.”
