Overview: Have you ever had a student who was excessively dramatic or who repeatedly monopolized discussions in a know-it-all, domineering, or aggressive fashion? Perhaps you've encountered a student who was so odd or anxious that they weren't able to participate in group activities or complete assignments. It's hard to know what to do when a student's personality just seems to take over your class, but you can't just stand by and do nothing. If they are not managed effectively, students with personality disorders take up a lot of time and can move your whole class in counterproductive directions. Sometimes these challenging students have a Personality Disorder, which is a persistent pattern of perceiving, relating to, and thinking about the environment and themselves that is maladaptive, rigid, pervasive, and enduring. Personality Disorders also manifest in the student's emotional response and impulse control and can negatively impact classroom teaching and learning as well as a student's personal and academic success. Unless you are a particular student's psychiatrist, it's not your job to diagnose them as having a personality disorder, but it is helpful to recognize and understand signs of a personality disorder. This webinar will identify different personality disorders and review their common traits and characteristics. You will learn essential tools for dealing with Personality Disorders such as boundary setting, clear communication, and effective classroom management. In addition, you will review relevant mental health resources and when and how to make appropriate referrals to counseling, accessibility services, and student conduct. Why should you attend: If students with personality disorders are not managed effectively, their behavior can have a negative impact on teaching and learning.

The human microbiome is comprised of archaea, eukaryotes, bacteria, and viruses that reside within anatomical sites of the human body including skin, placenta, uterus, mammary glands, lung, saliva, oral mucus, etc. There have been various attempts at understanding the mechanism of this microbiome. The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) launched 'The Human Microbiome Project' to enhance the understanding of microbial flora that is involved in human health and disease. The goals of the project were to reveal the diversity of the microbial community in healthy people, to assess the impact of the environment on the microbiomes of individuals, and to identify new applications for these microbes. The microorganisms in human bodies are an important part of a balanced natural system. This project is a collection of over 100 human microbiomes that was obtained from healthy individuals of the U.S. This reference panel was then compared with the microbiomes from the same individuals' stool samples.

Course "Tougher Import Rules for FDA Imports in 2016" has been pre-approved by RAPS as eligible for up to 12 credits towards a participant's RAC recertification upon full completion. Overview: FDA's and the Customs and Border Patrol Service (CBP) have become increasingly sophisticated and equally demanding in the submission of information and adherence to government procedures. Firm's that fail to understand and properly execute an import and export program find that their shipment is delayed, detained or refused. In 2016 entries must use the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) entry filing system or face entry refusals and monetary penalties up to $10,000 per offense. A number of other factors can derail the expectation of a seamless import process. The course covers detailed information about the roles and responsibilities of the various parties with an import operation and how to correct the weakest link(s) in the commercial chain. The course will include tips on how to understand FDA's thinking and offer anecdotal examples of FDA's import program curiosities. Why should you attend: What happens when your product is detained? FDA will begin a legal process that can become an expensive business debacle. You must respond fully within short timeframes. This is not the time for you to be on a learning curve. You need to have a plan in place and know what you are doing. The FDA is steadily increasing the legal and prior notice information requirements. If you do not know what those requirements are and you initiate a shipment, your product is figuratively dead in the water. You must be accurate with the import coding information and understand the automated and human review process. If not, you can expect detained shipments. CBP is implemented a new "Automated Commercial Environment" computer program that changes import logistics and information reporting for FDA regulated products. Your shipment may be stopped before it is even loaded at the foreign port. What

Corporate wellness has been around for many years. However, the emergence of Covid-19 has brought it into the mainstream of organizations. Companies are now looking at ways to improve their workforce's health and well-being. The recent economic crisis and the drastic change in the working environment have both highlighted how imperative it is for companies to develop and sustain a healthy workforce. Corporate wellness programs have become the norm for many US-based companies. According to a report sponsored by U.S. Department of Labor and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and produced by The RAND Corporation, over 80% of companies in the U.S with over fifty employees offered some sort of corporate wellness benefit. When most people think of wellness, they often think of physical fitness and nutrition. There are several benefits to improving your employee's mental health and wellbeing as well. Studies show that poor mental health is correlated with work-related and job-related injuries, which in turn can result in lost productivity, higher sick days, and an overall loss in profitability.

Muscles can contract too much, too little, or all at the same time. Limbs can be stiff and forced into painful, awkward positions. Fluctuating muscle contractions can make limbs tremble, shake, or writhe. Balance, postur
