To develop a competitive application for a residency program, Michael recommends, \\u201cNetworking is probably one of the more impactful things you can do.\\u201d
\\xa0
The practice of physical therapy continues to evolve as the knowledge base grows and seasoned practitioners can remain up-to-date by pursuing a fellowship or residency. Michael believes, \\u201cNo matter what time in your career you can always benefit from going back and learning more.\\u201d

Having been an integral part of many fellowship and residency programs, Michael has found, \\u201cResidency and fellowship education are investments in your overall career and ultimately I think that it leads to a lot of increased job satisfaction as your clinical skills grow and it\\u2019s a very powerful and transformative experience.\\u201d
