This also means that if you are hungry for CEUs look no further than these brilliant courses on Physiopedia+. There is an ever expanding selection of diverse course topics covering many specialties.  Several of the courses have been accredited already, and if you are unsure which course is best for you, there is a little bit about what is on offer below. Your opportunity awaits!

Foot & Ankle – 6.00 CEUs

The foot and ankle is a complex structure and a good understanding is essential no matter which specialty you work in. Best practice requires skills in assessment, treatment and rehabilitation across acute and chronic conditions. Due to the complexity and diversity of the topic, this course gives you an introduction to assessment and treatment techniques, and gives you a foundation of understanding to build upon.

The outline includes:

  1. Structure and function of the foot and ankle
  2. Medial and lateral aspects of the ankle
  3. Conditions of the anterior, posterior and plantar aspects
  4. Other common conditions and orthotics

Stroke – 7.00 CEUs

This is one of our most popular courses and was recently updated to include the latest and best Physiopedia+ can offer. The course aims to provide an overview of stroke practice allowing you to develop a foundation of knowledge enabling you to become the best clinician possible. You will obtain a deeper understanding of anatomy and physiology, clinical presentation, assessment and treatment of stroke according to the latest evidence. The outline includes:

  1. Epidemiology, Risk Factors, Anatomy, and Clinical Presentations
  2. Assessment of Stroke including Outcome Measures
  3. Management of Stroke including Clinical Guidelines
  4. Specific Therapeutic Interventions including Gait, Upper Limb

For a taste of what to look forward to, watch this interview with Dr Coralie English. This course really will transform your practice.

Other Courses Accredited with Procert

Over 8 weeks in September and October 2016 Physiopedia, in collaboration with the International Committee of the Red Cross, delivered it’s fifth Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on the topic of Cerebral Palsy (CP). 14,010 participants formally registered for the Managing Children with Cerebral Palsy course, this represented 179 countries and 84% were physiotherapists.

This course changed the entire approach towards CP, not only for me but with the application in clinical setting, also for my colleagues. I got to learn not about the treatment through material but with videos and practical approaches in different countries. Especially the discussion forum really helped where different physiotherapists from all  around the world shared their experiences.

A Whopping 2/3’s of the required number of CEUs can be gained by taking part in the CP course when it suits you, in your own time.
