Q & A Discussion
Higher entry level degrees in physiotherapy will lead to better patient care. Over the past few years physiotherapy education has been rapidly changing. One of the most noticeable changes is the movement of entry level degrees from bachelor programs to Master and Doctorate programs. These changes are a result of the changing practice and the evolution of a profession. They are often explained in the context of moving the profession to a new level; to better market professional services in an expanded and competitive global environment; and, to increase the entry-level education of professions that are moving to autonomous practice and thus have greater accountability to the public.
Is there evidence to support these arguments?
In this discussion participants will outline how this ‘creeping credentialism’ is impacting on the physiotherapy profession.
