iKT changed how our organization delivers care by helping us implement evidence-based practice more effectively across teams. A truly career-changing experience

iKT showed me that intensity is often the missing piece. Walk the Walk pairs current evidence with real-world expertise, giving me confidence to implement HIT in practice

Rachel Cox, Sutter Health, California

Walk the Walk was the most impactful education course that I’ve taken. It changed my practice immediately and influenced our PT and OT teams. Three years later, the improvements remain, enhancing patient outcomes and my confidence in applying research

Emily Thacker, Bellingham, WA

The Walk the Walk course strengthened my knowledge and skills in high-intensity gait training. I successfully implemented it in both my teaching and a pro bono clinic, where students now practice HIT weekly with individuals with neurologic conditions.

The online and hybrid format made it easy to participate in Walk the Walk. I could complete the self-study portions on my own time while still engaging with other clinicians to learn and ask questions. Despite a busy schedule, I gained a wealth of practical knowledge.

Exceeded my expectations—challenging, well-paced, and highly effective in a remote format.

Advanced Practice Clinician, Physical Therapist

This course provided evaluation and treatment strategies I hadn’t identified through my own literature reviews. Having the evidence presented this way was a tremendous time-saver and increased my confidence in practice.

The evaluation and treatment strategies especially for the sensory and autonomic systems was really helpful for me. This is not an area that I received much training in through PT school.

A beautiful way to deliver a comprehensive course for Functional Neurologic Disorders based on current research.

The balance of asynchronous and synchronous learning fit well into my busy life. The course strengthened my approach to evaluation and treatment of individuals with FND, prompting more in-depth functional and sensory assessment.

If your goal is to develop skills to be a leader of a KT team or to guide implementation of high level EBP at your facility, then this is the course for you. Prior to the course, I knew almost nothing about Knowledge Translation. Now, after completing it, I feel prepared to start leading implementation efforts at my workplace.
