[QUOTE=nimi2906;79332]Hi,

The no of credits is not mentioned on the website. Send an email with your little introduction and subjects you are interested in, then a co-ordinator will get back to you with all the information. PRI is a little slow in responding so you gotta keep them bugging. There's another uni called St augustine which offers delegation course too. But according to my friends, PRI is much easier so i opted for that.

I am pasting some of the info i received in an email from PRI co-ordinator. Hope it helps!!!

[Hi Nimi,
I have done Bachelor in Physiotherapy from India. And now, I am planning to apply for NPTE. For that, I have to fulfill credential requirements for FCCPT. So, I was looking for the courses at PRI but I didn't get much information to contact university. Can you please tell me how to get registered for the course or how to get enrolled in the PRI? I see that you have provide link (PT Credentialing Program | Philippine Rehabilitation Institute) to register courses at PRI in one of the following messages, but It is not working.]
