This webinar will outline the process of BASES Supervised Experience, including the supervision and reviewing and will be led by Dr James Wright and Dr James Malone who both have extensive experience of supervising and reviewing individuals through the Supervised Experience programme. The workshop will also provide an insight to Supervised Experience from Rebecca Blake, Bernardo Norte, Richie Cailes and Kai McAllister, who are currently going through the programme.

Summary:
For individuals living with multiple sclerosis (MS), a carefully devised exercise prescription is essential. Since exercise professionals may conduct exercise testing and prescriptions in a variety of health care settings, it is critical that they understand MS as it relates to exercise testing and prescription. Therefore, the purposes of this Clinical Applications column are to provide exercise professionals an overview of 1) MS and heat sensitivity, 2) previous and current research mitigating heat sensitivity and exercise, and 3) a clinical application and preliminary research findings of a wearable cooling aid designed to facilitate exercise tolerance for individuals with MS.
