At the core of AAOS’ specialized requirements was the need for a 30,000 SF state-of-the-art Orthopaedic Learning Center . It includes 24 surgical stations for hands-on surgical training and demonstration of the latest surgical techniques and tools. WHA also designed a 180-person auditorium for classroom work, presentations, conferences and seminars. Both the auditorium and OLC feature state-of-the-art AV equipment, including large projection screens, video displays and cameras located throughout the facility to aid in presentations and seminars.
