Your participation in the SADS Speakers Bureau provides the greater healthcare community your expertise in diagnosing and managing SADS conditions, and we firmly believe that through your participation you will be seen as "the expert" in your area.
The Speakers Bureau is built on a "train the trainer" model; members of our Medical Education Committee create and vet program materials, SADS staff members create the supporting documents and policies and procedures; and you take those materials and represent us as one of our experts to targeted members of the healthcare community.
