OPA reviewed the proposed changes, collected feedback from the physiotherapy community, and submitted a response to the College. In our response, we highlighted risks and challenges with removing the provisional practice class, including health human resource implications, challenges for internationally educated physiotherapists, equity and accessibility of a single examination, and the need for emergency preparedness and response protocols.
