Canadian Physiotherapy National Competency Exam

[Sarah2020]

Hi,

I am a foreign trained physiotherapist and preparing for the National competency exam (written component). Can anyone guide me about books that are helpful to pass this exam. I already have O Sullivan’s review guide, therapeutic exercises by Kisner and Colby, Physical rehabilitation assessment and treatment by O Sullivan, Orthopedic physical assessment by D. J Magee, and a book on physical agents by Cameron. Can anyone please tell me if these books are sufficient enough to pass the Canadian exam or if I am missing any important text book. I am also looking for a study partner or a study group. Anyone writing the Canadian Exam, please contact me at
sali667@hotmail.com

Thank you

Hi Sarah, Within this forum there are already a number of threads and posts that discuss the Canadian registration process. These discuss various aspects from exams to recognition of training. I have groups some of the more useful starting points under a Canada tag which can be reached from the Tags link on the top navigation bar.

Please try reading a few of these and add any questions or additions to these existing posts rather than starting a whole new one. Best of luck...

You do need a good Cardio-respiratory book. I used Alexandra Hough's.
