    Re: Working in Canada-PNE, Please help!

    Once you have pass the PCE you will have no trouble getting a job anywhere in Canada!

    Your options are to join a clinic, where you will be lucky if you get paid 40% of the fee taken, or set up on your own if you feel brave enough, or to work for a health authority. You can easily find reams of jobs just by looking at the websites for the health authorities in your chosen location.

    Just decide where you want to live and check out the physiotherapy association for that province. They usually have jobs advertised.

    For example, here is the Alberta Physiotherapy Associations selection:
    http://www.albertaphysio.org/employment/alberta.html
    and here's the Calgary Health region's list:
    http://www.calgaryhealthregion.ca/su...nals_title.htm

    It really is not hard to get a job. Your biggest hurdles will be immigration and accreditation, I suspect! Some provinces are looking for healthcare workers to sponsor. Take a look at BC (British Columbia), or Saskatchewan ..... you might get help with the whole process if they like you!

    Do I know anything about Bond University from Australia for Masters in Sports Science(1yr duration course)? .... No I don't.

    As I previously stated, example questions/cases can be found on the Alliance web-site, as is a very complete and comprehensive booklist. I wasn't a student here, so I don't really know if students in Canada use any other books than those listed.
