Summit Professional Education, backed by Avathon Capital, has acquired Kids Bowel & Bladder, a continuing education organization specializing in pediatric pelvic health. Headquartered in Franklin, Tennessee, Summit is a leading provider of continuing and professional education for physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, and behavioral and mental health professionals.

Founded in 2004, Summit offers a comprehensive catalog of over 1,500 courses nationwide, delivered by a network of more than 100 instructors. This acquisition strategically expands Summit's reach into the pediatric pelvic health sector, complementing its existing offerings. In 2025, Summit had previously acquired Herman & Wallace, a professional education institute focused on pelvic rehabilitation, further solidifying its position in specialized therapeutic education.

The integration of Kids Bowel & Bladder is expected to enhance Summit's portfolio and provide a more unified platform for professionals seeking advanced training in pelvic health across the lifespan. This move underscores Summit's commitment to growth and its strategy of acquiring key players in niche segments of the continuing education market.
