The issue is that the NZ Physioboard only accepts tertiary education that is similar to one of the NZ Physiotherapy degree programmes (in contents, length and evidence based approach)= 4 years.
Therefore, if you have completed a three year degree, you need to have done at least 12 months postgrad practice.
If you have got another science degree and completed the two year master degree, your other degree is accepted, but you need to complete 12 months practice, to ensure basic requirements for Physio.
Good luck,
