Professional Development Planning & Tracking
A training for practitioners with Camille Freeman
Recorded in January 2026
Class Description
Staying current in clinical practice is essential, but it’s easy to overdo it when it comes to continuing your education. It's easy to collect classes and workshops that might be useful in the future, your "to watch" list growing ever larger. It's also easy to spend time on classes and workshops that aren't actually that helpful. Many clinicians engage in procrastilearning instead of focusing on other things - especially marketing 🙈.
In this one-hour workshop, we talked about how to prioritize which classes to take, how long to spend on professional development, and how to keep track of what you've done. I shared some simple systems for organizing what you’ve purchased, what you've completed, and any classes you'd like to take in the future.
You’ll walk away with a clear plan and a customizable Google Sheets tracker you can start using immediately. I hope you find the workshop helpful ❤️
By the end of the session, you'll be able to:
Evaluate which continuing-education opportunities are most relevant to your clinical focus, business goals, and available time.
Recognize when you’re over-investing in professional development (including slipping into “procrastilearning”) and set realistic boundaries for CE hours.
Create an annual plan for meeting your required and/or elective CE needs without burnout.
Use a simple tracking system to organize your completed trainings, CE hours earned, upcoming commitments, and the courses you’ve already purchased.
Prioritize future learning strategically so you’re investing in the topics and skills that will have the greatest impact on your practice.
