Education Resources, Inc. Life-changing learning for therapists by therapists. Continuing education courses for OTs, PTs and SLPs. We remind you why you love what you do! We have grown.

Founded in 1985 by two practicing therapists Barbara Goldfarb and Carol Loria, ERIโ€™s mission is to provide continuing education that can truly make a difference for therapists and their patients. As therapists themselves, they are committed to assuring class participants learn effective techniques and critical problem solving skills that can be immediately applied in the work setting. The idea of Education Resources came to us over dinner one night just 25 years ago. We met in graduate school at Sargent College at Boston University, became fast friends and following graduation, did collaborative research between our respective facilities. We founded a journal club to help us stay current in our ever-evolving field, and this group has been meeting monthly for nearly 30 years. One night, while we were out on maternity leave, we talked about our dream of starting a company to provide the kinds of continuing education that could really make a difference for therapists and their patients. By the time we hit dessert, we were in, excited, and ready to roll up our sleeves. Little did we know how going out on maternity leave would change our lives in so many ways. Initially we taught all the courses which focused on treating the child with cerebral palsy. We answered the phones, did our own bulk mailing, and our office fit into two briefcases that were shuttled between our houses. Clearly, Education Resources has grown over the years, at the same rate as our children who are now in graduate school themselves. We continue to strive to develop and offer courses that really make a difference in the lives of the children you treat. Our office is staffed by 11 caring, dedicated professionals, and we now offer courses for PTs, OTs, SLPs, educators and others throughout the country. We are always available to help you plan your professional development and to choose courses to help you achieve your goals. Carol Loria

Vestibular disorders can affect anyone, regardless of age, profession, or public profile. Stories like these help raise awareness of conditions that are often misunderstood or invisible to others.

If you work with individuals experiencing dizziness, vertigo, balance challenges, or vestibular migraine, understanding these conditions is essential to providing effective care. Thanks to VeDA for highlighting these experiences and helping bring greater visibility to vestibular health.

๐Ÿ“š Session: More than the Norm: Capturing Strengths, Student Voice, and Real-World Skills

Traditional assessments don't always reflect the strengths, communication styles, and real-world abilities of neurodivergent students.

10/08/2026

Ever wonder how you can read a street sign while walking or keep your eyes on a ball while moving? Thank your vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR). This behind-the-scenes reflex helps keep your vision steady during head movement, making everyday activities feel effortless. Amazing what the brain and body do automatically every second of the day.

Try this: pick an object in front of you and keep looking at it while slowly turning your head side to side. ๐Ÿ‘€

Your vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) is helping keep that object in focus.

The VOR connects your vestibular and visual systems, automatically moving your eyes to compensate for head movement. When this reflex is impaired, the world may appear blurry, jumpy or even like it's bouncing as you move.

Pretty impressive for a reflex you probably never think about. Learn more: https://vestibular.org/article/diagnosis-treatment/vision-hearing/vision-challenges-with-vestibular-disorders/
