FAQs

Who can attend?

Our mission is to empower care providers with the hands-on and mental skills to leverage the power of ultrasound imaging and Doppler technology to the benefit of their patients. Our courses offer intro to advanced skills to launch, expand, or renew their service in care for others. Our approach is transformational, not transactional.

How small are classes?

Each class has just four participants per class for personalized training. This model mirrors the ideal format for adult learning: it allows us the time and flexibility in leading and supporting you along your learning experience without pressure.

How can I learn pathologies in such a short time?

All clinical competency starts with normal. Next comes abstract spatial reasoning, understanding artifacts, and the physics basis of displayed patterns. They're at our core.
Pathology is forever different. The role of ultrasound is to confidently and completely survey the organ and identify normal from suspected abnormal, and classify abnormal into evidence-based categories. We go farther: we match the elements of image and Dopler data to the physics, histology and clinical findings to explain it, in terms that are straightforward and lifelong memorable from the start.

Is feedback immediate?

Yes, we give continuous supportive bedside feedback to validate and improve your skills. Thus, there are no quizzes or formal exams. Our deep experience and passion for your success drives our respect, empathy and skill in leading you forward with support, not intimidation. We help set you on the proper trajectory for life.

How long is mentorship?

Our free mentorship lasts a lifetime, supporting your ultrasound journey. You become a special part of our worldwide Alumni and our private and public social media sites keep us connected.

What makes KMA different?

Our micro-class format, real patient practice, and 40+ years of teaching set us apart. These have never been just classes; they're life and career-changing experiences and a relationship that never ends. Visit the voices of past attendees at our Attendee Voices and The Clinician's Journey pages.
