SIRC Attends The Joint Commission on Sports Medicine

April 3, 2001

OTTAWA, CANADA: In early March, as part of the SIRCUIT 2001 World Tour, Rob Gallaher, Director of Marketing and Sales, represented SIRC at the Joint Commission on Sports Medicine. Held this year in Indianapolis, the annual forum welcomes representatives from the Sports Medicine and Science communities to share their work, to learn what others are doing in the field and to debate the issues that will affect the future of the sports medicine profession.

Other attendees included Anita DeFrantz of the International Olympic Committee., Jim Whitehead of the American College of Sports Medicine and Brian Halpern from the American Medical Association of Sports Medicine.

The three-day meetings proved to be a successful venture as strategic partnerships were formed between SIRC and some of the organizations in attendance. Initially SIRC will be providing educational electronic services to the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PASSOR) and the American Academy of Podiatry Sports Medicine.

These services will include the current awareness monthly SIRCUIT email product, as well as the transfer of printed manuals to electronic files.
