Continuing your chiropractic education is a never-ending endeavor and in fact is a requirement to maintain chiropractic licensure. Kathy Stavovy-Bannister as Director of Postgraduate Education at Life University (Life U) works tirelessly to help take the guess work out of needed annual CE hours and what is required in various states.

The special main event hosted by the Postgraduate Department each year is Life Vision Extravaganza weekend, being held in September 18-20, 2025. Not only is it a homing of sorts for the Life U community, but it allows chiropractors to complete many CE hours in one place. Learn more at life.edu
