CANADIAN ALLIANCE OF PHYSIOTHERAPY REGULATORS
The Canadian Alliance of Physiotherapy Regulators (CAPR) is a credentialing and assessment agency that provides Evaluation Services on behalf of their Members – the Canadian provincial and territorial physiotherapy regulators (called Colleges). On behalf of their Members, CAPR reviews the education and qualifications of applicants educated outside of Canada to determine whether or not they are substantially different from those of Canadian-educated physical therapists. For both Canadian- and internationally-educated physical therapists, they administer the Physiotherapy Competency Examination (PCE) to determine a candidate’s readiness for safe, effective and independent physical therapy practice.
