SUMMARY:Beyond the Booth: Deep Dive into Energy Management—Techniques for Sustained Productivity
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Alena Conley\, MBA\, PPP \nCEUs: 0.1 AAA \nDuration: 60 minutes \nInstructional Level: Intermediate \nProgram Focus: Knowledge \nDescription: \nDive deeper into the art of energy management with “Deep Dive into Energy Management: Techniques for Sustained Productivity\,” a webinar designed to empower you with the skills to identify your personal energy peaks\, understand your circadian rhythms\, and utilize restorative practices. This session goes a step further by teaching you how to achieve flow states throughout your day using the Pomodoro Technique\, a proven method for maintaining focus and enhancing productivity. Learn to strategically align tasks with your natural energy levels and incorporate focused work sessions to not only boost productivity but also to achieve a more fulfilling work-life balance. \nLearning Outcomes: \n1. Analyzing: Analyze personal energy patterns and circadian rhythms to identify optimal times for engaging in tasks that require high cognitive effort\, setting the stage for achieving flow states.\n2. Applying: Apply the Pomodoro Technique as a tool to structure work periods and breaks\, facilitating the entrance into flow states during periods of peak energy\, thereby maximizing focus and minimizing fatigue.\n3. Creating: Develop a comprehensive energy and time management plan that incorporates strategies for aligning tasks with energy peaks\, using the Pomodoro Technique to enhance focus\, and incorporating restorative practices to sustain productivity. This plan aims to optimize work output while maintaining energy and promoting a healthy work-life balance. \nREGISTER NOW

SUMMARY:Animal Audiology: Something New Is Brewing
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Peter M. Skip Scheifele\, PhD \nCEUs: 0.1 AAA \nDuration: 60 minutes \nInstructional Level: Intermediate \nProgram Focus: Knowledge \nDescription: \nConstant noise can have physiological and psychological effects in several nonhuman species. However\, few investigations have focused specifically on the deleterious effects of environmental noise on the auditory system in dogs. Whether constant noise can affect dogs\, particularly working dogs that are relied upon for their enhanced sensory capabilities (e.g. those used in military and law enforcement operations or search and rescue)\, is important to determine and the conditions or environments that can impair these sensory capabilities need to be well understood. \nAs a result of the number of cases of congenital deafness in dogs\, the veterinary and breeding communities have made an extensive effort to have puppies undergo auditory screening between the ages of five (5) to eight (8) weeks of age. The only acceptable audiological test for determining baseline hearing acuity is the brainstem auditory evoked response (BAER) test. BAER testing also can be used in diagnostic situations and as a baseline for establishing hearing acuity in dogs. \nMoreover\, although the BAER electrophysiological test is objective in its output (waveforms) the establishment of which peak on the resultant waveforms is subjective with the possible exception of Wave-V and the subsequent trough (VT) of Wave-V. This routine technique has been used with humans since 1967 and slowly introduced into the animal industry since the 1980s. \nOutside of congenital deafness\, noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a big factor in kenneled dogs\, those transported in trucks and in helicopters and when exposed to gunfire and explosives. Most occupied kennels may have peak noise at 110 dB SPL and even require hearing protection of the handlers upon entering. The consequence of NIHL in any working dogs is a failure of the dog to properly behave to voice commands and to miss critical acoustic cues while working. \nLearning Outcomes:   \n1. Understand what animal audiology entails.\n2. Know what specific audiological tests are run on canines.\n3. Know what the OFA and AKC standards are for canine audiology. \nREGISTER NOW
