92. Dustin Hergert, PTA - PTA Inspire Series

On today's episode of the PTA Inspire series, Briana sits down with Dustin Hergert, PTA to talk about how he was able to pass the exam on the 3rd attempt despite many life situations that could easily have sent anyone into a spiral. Tune in to learn more! Here's a bit about Dustin: "Throughout my life I have had a wide range of career paths such as retail, cosmetology, farmer, rancher, beekeeper and the list goes on and on. Around 14 years ago I became a caregiver for an adult with disabilities and it is this job that changed my life. For years I worked with adults as well and children with disabilities, making sure that each and every day was as fulfilling for them as it could be. One of my tasks was to take my clients to their PT appointments and it was here that I learned the importance of physical therapy and how it could improve my clients lives. So I, a 40 year old man, decided to start my college career and set out for PTA school. I had an amazing class where all my classmates worked together to get everyone through the program and our entire class passed the course. Little did I know that the NPTE was going to be the most difficult part of this journey for me. Failing not once but twice was an emotional rollercoaster, but because of the support from not only my classmates but from Bri and the PTA Elevation program I walked out of my 3rd exam knowing that I had passed. Now I look forward to my career as a PTA for children with disabilities." - Dusting Hergert, PTA Add Dustin on social media: @ssb1979 on Instagram Learn more about the PTA Elevation Coaching Program: https://ptaelevation.com/ptaelevationcoachingprogram Register for Last Minute Review Session: https://ptaelevation.com/last-minute-review Join our FB group for FREE resources to help you study for the exam! https://www.facebook.com/groups/382310196801103/ Visit our website to learn more about us! https://www.ptaelevation.com/ If you're interested in our self paced NPTE-PTA Prep course, please check out the link below: https://ptaelevation.com/the-600-plus-system Follow us on our other platforms! https://ptaelevation.com/linktree We look forward to serving you!
