The Council on Chiropractic Education (CCE) is pleased to announce the appointment of Tom Benberg, EdD, as the council's president / chief executive officer. The appointment comes after a comprehensive search by the CCE Presidential Search Committee, a committee comprised of a cross-section of leadership stakeholders and interested parties within the chiropractic profession.
Benberg joins the CCE after serving as senior vice president / chief of staff for the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACS) in Duluth, Ga. With an extremely strong accreditation background and widespread respect in the accreditation community, Benberg's 17 years' experience with SACS, helping institutions understand the standards, demonstrate compliance with the standards, and communicate their case effectively, will be a significant asset to the CCE's charge.
"The CCE Executive Committee, Councilors and Staff welcome the opportunity to benefit from Benberg's extensive knowledge of accreditation and his strengths in stakeholder communication, training and education at this time in our organizational history," commented CCE Council Chair, Craig Little, DC.

When sports chiropractors first appeared at the Olympic Games in the 1980s, it was alongside individual athletes who had experienced the benefits of chiropractic care in their training and recovery processes at home. Fast forward to Paris 2024, where chiropractic care was available in the polyclinic for all athletes, and the attitude has now evolved to recognize that “every athlete deserves access to sports chiropractic."
It is estimated that 61% of patients with CTS avoid taking surgical options due to postoperative complications and costly surgical procedures. Chiropractic care offers a comprehensive and effective treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome, addressing the condition from multiple angles. Recent studies also have unveiled a game-changing adjunct to chiropractic treatments for CTS: nerve flossing.
Some doctors thrive in a personality-based clinic and have a loyal following no matter what services or equipment they offer, but for most chiropractic offices who are trying to grow and expand, new equipment purchases help us stay relevant and continue to service our client base in the best, most up-to-date manner possible. So, regarding equipment purchasing: should you lease, get a bank loan, or pay cash?
