Sensational Brain LLC provides research-based education and products for therapists, educators, and parents to enhance sensory modulation in children and teens.
Sensational Brain LLC is an approved provider of continuing education through AOTA’s Approved Provider Program (APP #8215). AOTA accreditation is recognized by many state licensing boards [https://www.aota.org/career/continuing-education/approved-providers/states-that-currently-recognize-aota-approved-providers]recognize and the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy. AOTA does not endorse specific course content, products, or clinical procedures. Look for the AOTA brand blocks on approved courses.
In September 2020, AOTA revised its course approval process. Courses approved before September 1 were grandfathered for 5 years. By September 2025, grandfathered courses must be resubmitted for review or discontinued. Once approved, courses are assigned a Professional Development activity ID number. PD ID numbers are recorded next to AOTA banner in the Accreditation section for each webinar.

We provide both live, interactive presentations through Zoom and recordings called view-on-demand webinars.
Following each live webinar purchase, the customer is registered through Zoom. Each purchase includes access to the view-on-demand version. Customers receive confirmation Zoom emails and reminder emails 1 week, 1 day, and 1 hour before the live event.
Recorded courses linked to live courses are preceded by the word PRESALE. Recordings are typically uploaded within 2 days of the live event. PRESALE is removed from the course title on the live date. Ideally, courses should be completed within twelve months of the date of purchase. Access to webinars beyond 1 year is not guaranteed.
Participants who satisfy these course completion requirements will receive a continuing education certificate.
Feedback is critical to ensure ongoing quality improvement of our course offerings. Though not required, survey results are carefully reviewed by Rachel Harrington, owner, Gwen Wild, our AOTA CE administrator, and course presenters.
For live and recorded webinars, learning outcomes are assessed through objective post-tests. Questions are linked to learning outcomes listed below course descriptions. Before taking the test, participants complete a demographics area. Required fields are marked with an asterisk. Blank fields will be left blank on the certificate:

Sensational Brain agrees to follow CE Broker’s policies and procedures to upload participant CEUs electronically as a condition of accreditation. Therefore, participants must provide accurate license numbers and state identifiers. Problematic uploads are addressed by emailing their support agents.
We upload CEUs daily, Monday through Friday, and as needed on Saturday and Sunday. Assigned course codes are documented in the Course Information section of the live and recorded webinar product pages.
Note: While the Georgia Board of Occupational Therapy recognizes our broadcasted distance learning format for live webinars, they do not satisfy the requirement for in-person training.
Training may be canceled by Sensational Brain LLC if no more than 5 registrations have been received 24 hours before the training or when a speaker emergency arises.
Participants must reply to verify receipt of the email notifications.
Participants may cancel Zoom registrations up until the start time of live webinars. Refunds will be issued following the guidelines outlined for Sensational Brain cancellations listed previously.

Sensational Brain LLC will work to resolve all complaints made known on course evaluation forms or directly to a Sensational Brain LLC employee by email or phone. Any employee or course presenter who receives a complaint must communicate the issue to Rachel Harrington within 48 hours. Rachel will determine the appropriate course of action and provide a written or verbal response to either the participant who complained or to the employee/contractor who received the complaint who will then be expected to pass on the response to the participant when appropriate. Complaints submitted through course evaluations will receive responses only when a determination is made that they are of such weight that further action is needed.
Full refunds will be given to registrants who experience technical difficulties or express dissatisfaction with the course at any time before completing the post-test. Refund requests may be emailed to rachel@sensationalbrain.com.
