ForwardAdvanced Team Training 2026
Advanced Team Training is a 2-day, on-site program designed by the Parkinson's Foundation exclusively for alumni of Parkinson’s Foundation Team Training to further advance knowledge and skills in providing interprofessional care.
The goal of this program is to provide a deeper focus looking through the lens of the team on the navigation of the unique challenges of those in the later stage of their Parkinson’s journey.
Participants can expect a highly engaging learning experience, with opportunities for interprofessional team collaboration, interactive learning, and practical application. The program is designed to strengthen both clinical skills in assessment and treatment, and team-based strategies that enhance coordinated, patient-centered care.
Attendees are responsible for their own travel, transportation, hotel arrangements, and non-conference food. (See the Venue tab for hotel link and travel information.)
The live days will take place in Reston, VA from October 22-23. You must complete the live days in their entirety, including evaluations to successfully claim credit.
