LSVT Global Virtual Live LSVT LOUD Training and Certification Course

In the face of COVID-19, our ability to provide in-person courses has been limited. For years we have been offering an Online LSVT LOUD Training and Certification course that continues to be enjoyed by many, but we recognize that some individuals prefer the live interaction and feedback that is a part of in-person courses. To bridge the gap for those learners, we are launching our Virtual Live LSVT LOUD Training and Certification Course!

This innovation allows us to provide alternative methods for all learning styles. Content, quality, and certification are equivalent across all course styles. Why a Virtual Live Event? A virtual live event allows us to have the face-to-face interactivity you expect from an in-person course, but from the comfort and safety of our own homes or offices.

Is it the same as the Online LSVT LOUD Training and Certification Course? No. The Virtual Live event combines pre-recorded components of our online course with some of the content presented live (online) by LSVT LOUD instructors. The 8 hours of live learning allows participants to interact with faculty, each other and even volunteers with Parkinson’s disease.

"In the global turmoil caused by the new coronavirus, I was very grateful to have received such a high-quality course. Thank you very much.” -Participant in LSVT Virtual Live Course, Tokyo, Japan

Learning Outcomes

• Outline the rationale for the treatment of voice in motor speech disorders• Identify aspects of Parkinson’s disease and other neural conditions, and the impact they

have on voice and speech• Explain the rationale for using LSVT LOUD for Parkinson’s disease and other adult or

pediatric neurological conditions/disorders• Describe key paradigm shifts in LSVT LOUD rationale and methods• Discuss key elements of LSVT LOUD that are consistent with theories of motor

learning and principles of neural plasticity• Identify characteristics of adults and children who would most likely benefit from

LSVT LOUD• Explain and demonstrate all aspects of LSVT LOUD, including daily exercises, speech

hierarchy exercises, and calibration• Define recommendations for patients’ long-term carryover of LSVT LOUD• Explain the benefits of LSVT LOUD to physicians and other healthcare professionals• Discuss strategies for insurance coverage for LSVT LOUD• Outline the process for documenting LSVT LOUD treatment outcomes

Virtual Live LSVT LOUD Course AgendaParticipation at the entire course is MANDATORY.

Pre-requisites: Course access will be opened on July 17, 2020 to start the pre- requisite learning which must be completed online no later than August 6, 2020. Approximately 4 hours of learning time.
