LSVT Global runs Oct 9 certification

LSVT Global is offering a virtual live LSVT BIG training and certification course on October 9-10, 2026, for physical and occupational therapy professionals, assistants and students seeking training in Parkinson’s care. The program is part of the company’s LSVT BIG curriculum, an amplitude-focused treatment approach used for people with Parkinson’s disease and other neurological conditions. LSVT Global’s event listing says the course combines pre-recorded instruction with live online sessions and a post-course exam. ### Who is this October course for? LSVT Global says the October 9-10 course is designed for physical and occupational therapists, physical and occupational therapy assistants, and students enrolled in those programs. The company’s training materials say the broader online and virtual live LSVT BIG offerings are intended to help clinicians “gain confidence” treating people with Parkinson’s disease and other neurological conditions. (blog.lsvtglobal.com) LSVT Global’s physical and occupational therapy resource page says clinicians can choose among in-person, virtual live and online formats, and that all three lead to the same LSVT certification. The company says the difference is in delivery format rather than the credential itself. ### What will clinicians actually do in the course? (blog.lsvtglobal.com) The October course is scheduled as a 15-hour program, according to the event listing. LSVT Global says that includes 5 hours of online asynchronous learning and 10 hours of virtual live interactive learning, with 3 hours of pre-recorded content to be completed within three weeks before the course and a final exam due within two weeks after it ends. (resources.lsvtglobal.com) LSVT Global says the training uses instructor-led practice sessions, case study presentations, question-and-answer time and video demonstrations. In descriptions of its virtual live LSVT BIG courses, the company says participants learn key treatment principles, practice LSVT BIG exercises and treatment methods, and work on tailoring the approach to patients with different abilities and goals.

LSVT Global’s store says its fully online LSVT BIG certification course grants official certification after course completion and a passing exam, along with access to a clinician account that includes treatment forms, bonus videos, webinars and support from clinical experts. (blog.lsvtglobal.com) The virtual live format adds scheduled online sessions with instructors on October 9 and October 10. The event page lists the first live session from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Eastern on October 9 and the second from 12:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Eastern on October 10. ### What does certification include after the course ends? (lsvtstore.mybigcommerce.com) LSVT Global says participants receive official LSVT BIG certification after completing the course and passing the exam. The company also says certified clinicians get access to an LSVT BIG clinician account that serves as a resource center for treatment forms, marketing materials, bonus videos, live and on-demand webinars, and support from clinical experts. (blog.lsvtglobal.com) LSVT Global’s student FAQ says students who are certified may be able to deliver LSVT BIG during clinical rotations or fieldwork if they are supervised by an LSVT-certified therapist from the same discipline. A separate LSVT Global post aimed at students says certification before clinical experiences can provide opportunities to practice techniques under mentorship from an LSVT-certified clinician.

LSVT Global’s event calendar lists one event for October 9, 2026, and the company’s store carries course registration pages for LSVT training products. The October 9-10 virtual live LSVT BIG course begins with pre-recorded coursework before the live sessions and ends with a final exam due within two weeks after the course, according to the event listing.
