Have you comp leted the Canadian Phys iotherapy Practice  – Self Assessm ent Readiness Tool (SART©) ? 

The Canadian Physiotherapy Practice Self-Assessment Readiness Tool is an optional step designed to helpinternationally-educated physiotherapists understand the Canadian physiotherapy profession. It describes whatphysiotherapists who work in Canada are expected to know and do. It outlines the competencies, or knowledge andskills that Canadian physiotherapists must have. The Alliance does not see any of the results of your self-assessment. It is meant only to help you self-assess your physiotherapy skills based on established Canadianphysiotherapy competency guidelines. It can provide you with valuable information to help you make importantdecisions. The Alliance encourages you to use SART to help orient you to physiotherapy in Canada. The SARTtool is available in French and English. You can find it on our website under Credentialling/Applicants/Resources.
