Re: New Zealand Registration
Hi Shane
Just read your thing on the forum page and thought i would ask how you were getting on with your registration?Me and a mate r hoping to work in NZ and were thinkin of doing what u have done!Does it help going out there to boost it?How much experience did you have before u applied?!
Re: New Zealand Registration
Shane - do you still have a word doc. copy of your competency section of the registration, I am going insane with this registration process and sometimes think i am writing way too much. It would be GREAT if u could email me a copy just to see how you set it out. I am unsure as to whether I need to write for example, how the body changes through human development or whether I just need to bullet point which papers I studied related to this and which placements I did that might also have incorporated this???
Any help to stop me losing my mind would be much appreciated :)
Re: New Zealand Registration
Shane - sorry the insanity has already taken its toll, I forgot to give you my email address.
Its [email protected]
THANKS
Re: New Zealand Registration
Hi Shane and Suzanne, where can I get a sample copy of the portfolio required for registration as a physio in NZ. The webiste is hardly user friendly. Can someone please give me a tip or two?
Could I possible get a copy of either of yours as this website is driving me insane.
Thanks so much!!!

Re: New Zealand Registration
Hi,
the website gives you information about what needs to be in the portfolio. The whole application booklet is on there. Have you written to them and asked for a hardcopy? Maybe that would make it easier for you.
The rest you really have to do yourself, as they ask you to explain how you believe that you meet all criteria, and put some evidence with it. It is a very personal statement.
So, I don't actually believe that someone else's portfolio will help you in the slightest.
If it drives you insane, maybe you should start over again and give it all a fresh glance.
Sufficient basic Physio education (like BSc Hons), some decent work experience and courses and you are done. Put it into nice words. There you go.
Cheers,
Andrea
