Chiropractic Programs – College & Educational Institutions

FICS Educational Institutions which have a chiropractic program are putting their support behind strengthening the efforts to grow sports chiropractic globally. FICS and the educational institutions work together to create a strong, cohesive voice for the acknowledgment of the education and research of the profession of sports chiropractors on the global stage.

 

FICS is the leading global organization providing equitable access to sports chiropractic care, education, mentoring, and research to all athletes and sports chiropractors regionally, nationally, and internationally. 

FICS works closely with our Educational Institutions to enhance and widen opportunities for chiropractic students. This provides students and faculty with further opportunities for collaboration, networking, and resources.

While Educational Institutions involved with FICS gain international connections and exposure, their students truly benefit from the wide access to and the wealth of resources from the global leaders in sports chiropractic.. Furthermore, the connection and coordination between FICS and Educational Institutions will only enhance the unified voice for current and future sports chiropractors around the world
