CEC |capo | PAC

 

CEP WorkshopIn 2009 more than 70 Canadian practitioners received CECs via OrtoPed’s commitment to providing continuing education opportunities.

In 2010 OrtoPed will continue to play a key role in continuing education as a leader, organizer and sponsor of professional seminars, workshops and industry lectures.

Continuing education is pivotal to maintaining certification and demonstrates a commitment to standards of professional competence.

We work closely with the Canadian Board for Certification of Prosthetists and Orthotists (C.B.C.P.O.) to ensure that our continuing education program is serving its purpose and that the objectives of the program support the professional development of all practitioners across the country.

Certificate

 

How Accreditation Works

Every five years all certified prosthetists and orthotists must complete a minimum of 30 hours of qualifying credits. OrtoPed workshops help attendees reach that goal by working with accrediting bodies to offer Mandatory Continuing Education credits (MCEs).
