Trusted by clinicians
What OTs say about Jeff's work.
“Engaging speaker with top-notch interventions. I would highly recommend Dr. Foster for a continuing education workshop.”
“The clearest thinking on visual performance I've encountered in 15 years of teaching.”
“I walked out of the workshop with tools I used the next morning. That never happens.”
“I have had the privilege of working alongside Jeff Foster in both academic and clinical settings. His learning and training sessions in the areas of vision/visual perception are outstanding. He presents materials clearly, encourages participation, and provides practical examples that make the concepts easy to understand and apply. Sessions are engaging, well-structured and highly informative. Every session reflects not only his extensive knowledge but also the wisdom that comes from years of experience and thoughtful practice. Individuals that attend his sessions gain valuable knowledge, increased confidence, and actionable tools that can be utilized in the clinic or classroom. I would highly recommend his training sessions to anyone seeking a meaningful and enriching learning experience in the areas of vision/vision perception.”
