Join us for a jam-packed interactive day of learning. We have a team of ODS Professionals bringing a variety of experience, knowledge and background to the table. This workshop is focused on providing education based on the NCRA requirements for both Closed book and Open Book areas. The sessions will consist of presentations/mini lectures along with visual learning to include scenarios, mock quiz questions and answers, round table discussion, a newly certified ODS testimony/“what to expect”, and more!
