Seminar Series

Epilepsy Ed. webinars are free presentations about topics that matter to people with epilepsy, their families, and anyone who is interested in learning! These educational sessions are led by NE Ohio healthcare professionals like neurologists, epileptologists, or other experts with knowledge about epilepsy and seizures. 

The Epilepsy Association hosts four free webinars a year over Zoom. Each is an hour long and ends with a live Q&A session with our guest speaker.

Everyone who registers will receive an email with a link or phone number to dial to join the seminar. This information is usually sent the day before the webinar. If you do not have the link in your email, check your spam folder or email us at contact@epilepsyinfo.org for a new link.

1 in 26 people will have develop epilepsy in their lifetime, and 1 in 10 people will have seizure in their lifetime, so these webinars are useful for everyone!
