The Institute welcomes applications for credit or exemption for prior accredited learning from any student. Such a credit may relate to any subject or module on our course. It may also relate to a year or part of a year. You will be asked to show where the detail on the course you have already covered matches the detail on the physical therapy course. If you already have a qualification in massage therapy or in sports therapy (or similar) on which you would like to build, it may also be possible to gain exemption on some or all of the practical elements of the year.

We will examine each application individually and advise as to the areas in which your exemption may apply.
