The ACP is committed to helping candidates become the writers, thinkers and speakers they desire to be and that the profession needs. "I took the ACP program when I had already been in practice for 20 years," says Dr. Felicia Stewart, '88. "I found it to be the single most fulfilling program I have ever participated in as a chiropractor. It served to sharpen my thinking, made me a better communicator and brought a whole new vitality to my practice."
Registration for ACP 2022-2023 ends on July 15, so sign up now to enhance your understanding, depth, and breadth of chiropractic philosophy!

| College Provides Employee Development

On June 13, Sherman College's associate vice presidents led an employee development day where they provided training for three popular programs. The training was brought about after a recent employee survey found a common interest for more knowledge on programs that employees currently use and/or want to know more about. These programs included Canva, Trello, and Excel, all of which are tools that will help build skills to best serve the college and its students.
