LACC plans to hold a "user friendly" seminar on the Mercy Center Guidelines March 27-28, 1993 on the college's Whittier campus, and in a second location, San Francisco, April 17-18, 1993.

The seminar presenters were all involved in the Mercy Center Conference: Dr. Dan Hansen, of the LACC postgraduate faculty, and Dr. Alan Adams, LACC resource faculty member, both served on the Mercy Conference steering committee and were commission members; Dr. Robert Mootz was a Mercy Conference commission member; and Ms. Laura Dressler was a corporate (OUM) Mercy Conference observer.

The seminar is intended to instruct how to properly use the Guidelines for Chiropractic Quality Assurance and Practice Parameters, informally known as the Mercy Guidelines.
