This evidence-based course will train clinicians in the practical management of vestibular disorders. The course will include instruction in anatomy and physiology, medical management, pathology, detailed bedside examination, and treatment skills. The material will be presented in a lecture, lab, and video case study format. Competence in the performance of a comprehensive office/bedside examination and treatment skills will be addressed in a lab format. An emphasis will be placed on the management of BPPV variants and vestibular hypofunction.

Upon completion of the course, participants should be able to:
- Perform a detailed bedside vestibular & balance examination
- Based on patient history and bedside examination, identify the specific features of:
- Peripheral vestibular disorders
- Central vestibular disorders
- Non-vestibular dizziness
- Recognize typical characteristics of peripheral vestibular vs. central-etiology nystagmus
- Prescribe rehabilitation programs to address compensation for vestibular hypofunction
- Identify specific variants of BPPV and perform appropriate canalith repositioning maneuvers
- Identify indications for further medical referral
