Destination

Pamper yourself, while also attending accredited CME in Scottsdale, Arizona. Mixing AEI's CME, CLE, and CE program with Scottsdale's desert locale will surely leave you renewed and ready to return to your patients better equipped with new and important knowledge as well as an improved peace of mind.

With only four hours of daily study for your CME in Arizona, you will have plenty of time to relax and explore Scottsdale in the remaining 20.

Scottsdale is known for five things: arts, resorts, food, shopping, and the desert. Challenging Sante Fe, Scottsdale's art scene is flourishing. Visit the more than 100 galleries and enjoy a Thursday night Art Walk, after your morning of CLE in Arizona. Of course you will likely schedule your stay at one of the many luxury desert resorts. There you can schedule your tee time as well as your spa treatment.

With over 600 restaurants, Scottsdale also offers the opportunity for a variety of gastronomic experiences. Upscale designer boutiques and the Southwest's largest shopping center, allow for an afternoon of "retail-therapy". And let us not forget Arizona's unique crowning glory - the desert. While here, be sure to take a hike, ATV excursion, or other adventure into the Sonoran Desert. It's beauty will leave you speechless.

Come to Scottsdale for CME or CLE, and bask in her dry heat.

Presentation Format

Destination-based, Remote Classroom

AEI’s new and unique Destination-based, Remote Classroom is designed to mimic the format and learning environment of AEI’s traditional, physical classroom. As before you will participate from the destination to which you’ve chosen to travel (within a 30 mile radius to be precise) during scheduled lecture hours. But, instead of viewing the course in the company of only those registered for the same destination that same week, you’ll now attend in the virtual and interactive company of everyone registered for any classroom operating in the same time zone. This dramatically increases your opportunity for dialogue with other practitioners and, better still, lets you do so on your laptop or tablet from the safety and comfort of your hotel room or condominium.  Total COVID-safety, comfort, convenience and the opportunity for dialogue with many more colleagues from a variety of professional disciplines. Now you understand why we keep saying, “the best way to mix business with pleasure just got better.”
