Registration Process
To gain registration, there are two possible options. It appears that as Irish graduates, the optimal way to go about registration is to apply for the second option (Assessment of Equivalence), and if you do not fulfil the sufficient criteria, you will directly enter stage 2 of option 1.
Option One: Assessment of Physiotherapists Who Intend to Apply to the Physiotherapy Board of Australia for General Registration
1. Initial Assessment
2. Written Assessment: MCQ (held twice anually worldwide)
3. Clinical Assessment: Treat 3 real patients from each core area (must be taken in Australia)
4. APA Final Certificate is issued once stages 1 to 3 are fulfilled
Option Two: assessment of equivalence of qualification
1. Apply for assessment of equivalence (university submit documents in substantial detail regarding all aspects of the qualification and course structure)
2. Qualification either meets or does not meet criteria. If it meets criteria, issued with APC certificate of Substantial Equivalence and apply for General Registration. If not, approved for Written Assessment (part 2 above).

Unquestionable people ask me what is the limit between "Non-interfering treatment" and "Physiotherapy." In my decision, nothing … ... A few people by chance, ensure that Physiotherapist Queens NY shows essentially more a hands-on manual treatment approach to manage administer coordinate recuperation, while Physical Therapy shows a more exercise-based approach to manage regulate oversee recuperation
