In "news/ calendar", you need to check the section "professional development calendar"; there, you'll find all the courses (incl. 2009) in PDF format.

Hi,
don't forget, this is the South Pacific!!!!
In NZ we have got summer holidays from mid December to beginning of February, so January is a pretty quiet month here. Better things to do than sitting in a lecture theater.

There are courses on offer for full-time and part-time study in both universities (AUT and Otago University) and that's pretty much it.

The NZSP has got special interest groups, e.g. NZ Manipulative Physiotherapy Association, which can be contacted via New Zealand Manipulative Physiotherapy Association :: Home Page
Other courses, like Mulligan, are advertised via the NZSP.

Reflexology and Accupressure are not considered Physiotherapy, so I have got no idea where you can find courses. But there is the Massage College, maybe it's worth a trial contacting them: Massage College

Kind regards,
Fyzzio
