    Hi I trained at Teesside Uni and did the 2 year MSc Rehabilitation science course. I really enjoyed it. The work schedule was heavy but worth it. We did a lot of problem based learning which made us all quite independent evidence based practitioners. Great facilities at Teesside.

    Re: uk studies

    I would agree with these comments. It should only be advised that you attend a course that will permit you registration with the HPC. Otherwise you cannot use the title "Physiotherapist". It is now a protected title in the UK. Also you will not find it eay to get any job without HPC registration.

    If the course covers the content required to be a proficient Physio in the UK then it is recognised by the HPC. If not then perhaps one should look very carefully at what they will gain by doing a NON-recognised course.
