Short Courses

Short Courses cover current accepted practices and are offered in four tracks simultaneously:
    (1) Percutaneous Penetration,
    (2) On-Site Applications,
    (3) Hazard Assessment, and
    (4) Clinical Trends.
Participants may choose individual courses from any of the tracks when they register.
