The Webinar Series Project

updated June 2019

In our 2017 fundraising campaign, the webinar series was on the list of "projects that need funding" and it we did not raise enough in that fundraiser to get the series started.
However, it is still considered a very important Project series to the hospital-based practice community, so I continue to hold space for it and room for future funding. So, if you are interested in sponsoring it for late 2019-2020, go to our Sponsor The Work page (and share it with your colleague or organization). 

The webinar series is a formal way to share our community wisdom.

The webinar series supports the Project Mission by

• sharing community wisdom
• discussing best practices and standards
• creating discussion space
• growing the community of living wisdom in a formal way

Contribute to the website to get this project off the ground, build this community, and support the movement of integrative medicine as a part of modern medicine.

What it is:  at each webinar, one member of the community will talk about a subject he or she is passionate about and will benefit  the community.  This may vary from best practices to recent research reviews to documentation standards.
Current discussion topics in the group include:

• Documentation standards for hospital practitioners
• Program solvency
• Program set up
• Residencies, fellowship programs, and specialty certifications
• How to design a research study in integrative medicine, with emphasis on East Asian Medicine
• Capturing clinical outcomes data
• Discussing research and best practices

Proposed webinar flow:
30 minute presentation followed by 30 minute discussion, Q&A session
record-able webinar--for anyone who cannot make the proposed time the speaker is available to present that month.

Webinar series
$2400 is the estimated cost of hosting the record-able webinar series for 12 months.
Check out our YouTube video for more details.

We did not raise enough funds in the spring 2017 to support the Webinar series project.  However, the Webinar Series idea continues to be requested and a potentially useful way to share community wisdom, so it is on the list of "projects-to-be-funded" for 2019-2020.
