credentialing

[sanchill]

hello, Kavi

I was not very interested in the options other than the self-study package because of the traveling time. If you choose the self-study package, you will receive

1) the "Context of Physiotherapy Practice in Canada"
2) an Assessment Tool ( actually, this is some MCs regarding to the above info.)
3) answer key to the Assessment Tool
4) a declaration form ( you need to sign the form declaring that you have completed the self-study package and then find a notary public to co-sign it which may cost ~$60-70 )

You need to
> study the information by yourself
> complete the assessment tool
> check the answers
> complete the declaration form with a notary public
> send the declaration form back to the Alliance.

You can search the notary public in your area by Google.
IF you want to know more about the content of "Context of Physiotherapy Practice in Canada", you can check it in my posts. Actually, my posts are about credentialing process and the PCE.

If you have any questions, you can reply the post or PM me. I check my e-mail everyday.

Hi Sanchil

Thanks for your info. Really its ellobrating my hypothesis. I have shortage of my credits in the area od Pharmocology, Research, independent practice, Evidence based practice and multi-disciplinary practice. Do you think I can take these all by self study package. Pls give ur ideas...........

Thanks

hi, Kavi

If I were you, I would take the pharmacology course in the school because I had difficulty to link the drugs and the related diseases together, I think it is better to study it with an instructor.

For Research and Evidence-based Practice, I am sorry that I cannot make any comments as I do not know how much you are familiar with these 2 areas. In Canada, people emphasize a lot on evidence-based practice, especially in the hospitals.

For the multidisciplinary/ independent practice questions, I THINK I ALSO LACKED CREDIT IN THIS AREA AND THAT'S WHY THE ALLIANCE WANTED ME TO GO THROUGH THE PLAR. I feel that taking the self-study package should be good enough

Anyway, these are my opinions only

Ya Sanchil

I hope the same to get an instructor for all the credits areas, it could be worthful to gain the creditential points. But onething I feel its very expensive for taking all the credits @ Thompson university. Its cost about $ 2000...


Really I was in dilemma, now after discussing with you, I feel more satisfied.

I am very very thankful to make my decision cleared out Sanchil.

If you dont mine r u working? Where? Can I get ur contact info.....

Takecare
