Hello there!

I am a second year Master Student completing my final year in the Master of Physical Therapy Program in London, Ontario, Canada. I too would love to move to Dubai once I become a registered Physiotherapist in November 2013. From the above threads I understand I need to complete a certifying examination with the Dubai Health Authority (DHA)? I will further look into that.

If you have any other suggestions or recommendations on how a new Canadian grad (with a Master-level degree, over 1025 hours of clinical experience and over a year's work experience as a PTA) could land a job in Dubai, I would be more than grateful! Or if you have some connections and are willing to share that too would be most helpful.

Sincerely,

Kate

Just wondering if any other newly qualified physios have managed to get anything in dubai.. and how easy/difficult it is for a physio with limited experience to get work there.

Also, do you have to register with the health board there or sit an exam before you can work as a physio?

Thanks
