We’re re-imagining Orthopalooza – and you’re at the heart of it

At Jackson Orthopedic Foundation, we’re always listening to our students, and what we’re hearing is clear: flexibility, relevance, and real-world application matter more than ever.

That’s why we’ve made the forward-looking decision to pause our October Orthopalooza 2-day Spine workshop. We’re redesigning the entire Orthopalooza workshop experience based on your feedback, creating the next generation of in-person training that’s even more adaptable and impactful for today’s clinicians.

Our updated workshops will return in January 2026.
Meanwhile, our mission hasn’t changed: We’re here to transform musculoskeletal care through high-quality education,and that includes making sure vital training stays within reach while we evolve our programs.

That’s why, as we take time to reshape Orthopalooza, we’re offering a $50 discount on our nationally certified Spine & Metabolic Conditions online course – so clinicians can continue building their skills without delay.

This 65-hour, self-paced course is packed with practical, evidence-based knowledge you can put into practice right away. CEs earned with JOF are valid in any state.

👉 Use code SPINE50 at checkout to enroll for just $250 (normally $300). This offer ends October 31.
