Enduring Course Process

*Please note by agreeing to repurpose your presentation into an enduring material, you are agreeing to the process outlined below.



1.) The process for developing enduring courses begins in the planning phase of the live conference. The “Pre-production” process includes reviewing speaker slides for copyright compliance and adhering to our guidelines. This includes all images being cited in the presentation. This also includes all images either being in the public domain, owned by the speaker, or licensed through a stock image website. If an image is licensed, it must be licensed for commercial use. Furthermore, all patient images must be de-identified or have written consent to be used in the speaker’s presentation. All PHI must be removed from any photos, scans, charts, etc. in the presentation. For more information about copyright compliance for an enduring course, please see the attached document.




2.) After reviewing your presentation, we will send any feedback regarding the images via email. We kindly ask that you make any corrections to your slides before the live conference.




3.) After the live conference, we will take the recording of your presentation and prepare it as an enduring material. This includes editing the video, audio, and making any further revisions to the images as necessary.




4.) We will then construct a course in our LMS system where the video of your presentation will be embedded along with a transcript and course evaluation. We will also construct a product for your course that users can purchase in our online enduring course catalog.




5.) The final step is publishing your course in the catalog for users to purchase.
