Dr. Wolff-Burke has been involved in developing the clinical teaching skills of physiotherapists in Kenya for the past three years. She recently returned from another training session where 41 physiotherapists from Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania explored ways to enhance their clinical placements and student mentorship. The class was held at Amref International University. The goal is to hand the program off to local PT academics and practitioners, so the 5 teachers-in-training presented the bulk of the 16-hour program.
