As many other chiropractors have eloquently stated:  in-person CEs create extreme financial duress.  Most chiropractors are still hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt from our chiropractic school education and in-person CEs are exorbitantly priced including the cost to travel, pay for accommodation, etc.  It is vastly preferrable to have a greater variety of CE classes and subjects to pick from online and to be able to complete our classes when we have availability.

I have a son with profound disabilities.  It is all I can do to work full-time, complete CE requirements, and take care of him.  There is not nursing assistance or childcare available for in-person CE classes, so I would be forced to terminate my license due to this arbitrary idea.
