How to Schedule your Member Customized Event:

 Step 1: To request a Member Customized Event, send an email to the Education Department at MCE@psia-e.org requesting the event. Please include:

  • Preferred Dates (first choice and second choice would be helpful).
  • Location or Resort where clinic will be held.
  • Preferred Clinician if any (cannot guarantee).
  • Topic(s) to be covered during your clinic.
  • Name of Member coordinating the clinic.
  • Expected number of participants. 

Step 2: The Eastern office will contact the chosen resort director to confirm dates and ticket availability. Once the event is approved by the director, we will set up a private registration link which you can provide to the other participants. Each participant will register individually.

Step 3: An Eastern office staff person will assign an Eastern Education Staff Member to conduct the event based on the topic selected.

Step 4: At the event, the Education Staff Member will complete attendance. After the event is complete, member records will be updated with continuing education credits (CEUs) and any other pertinent information.

If you have any questions, please call the Education Department at (518) 452-6095, or send an e-mail to MCE@psia-e.org.
