New Location!

Join us at the University of North Carolina in beautiful Chapel Hill for the next Ultrasound-Guided Regional Anesthesia Course, being held January 31-February 1, 2026. Begin with pre-course eLearning before you arrive, which allows for maximum hands-on practice time with expert faculty once you are onsite.

This course is designed for physician regional anesthesia practitioners currently using or wishing to use ultrasound technology in the administration of regional nerve blocks. The course is designed to meet the varied educational needs from those just starting to use ultrasound-guidance in regional anesthesia to the more practiced clinician with a broader experience base.
