Education and research

One of our key objectives is to advance the development and improve the quality of neurological rehabilitation across the world. We do this by providing education and training to all people involved awareness of neurorehabilitation, its practice and service provision.

Educational programmes

Flying Faculty

The Flying Faculty was established to advance education in those countries where neurorehabilitation is in its infancy. It delivers an expert training programme to a diverse group of health professionals in a short, intensive time period.

Summer schools

Neurorehabilitation best works as team approach. There are, however, some educational programmes that present the state-of-the-art across areas of neurorehabilitation (NR) in both a concise and comprehensive way with a clear focus on clinical practice.
