Rehab Essentials has partnered with the University of Montana (UM) to offer a cost-effective transitional Doctor of Physical Therapy (tDPT) degree program that allows internationally licensed working professionals to complete the degree on their terms, online and on their time. Each course within the curriculum is designed to advance critical thinking to the doctorate level while building on clinical skills. Plus, the University of Montana is institutionally accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU).
The University of Montana tDPT program provides a critical career advancement pathway for therapists trained at CAPTE accredited schools as well as foreign Universities. This track is for foreign trained therapist looking to attain a DPT and to either meet license requirements or continue to practice in their native country. All courses taken through this program are graduate level courses. Throughout this post-professional program you will gain advanced critical thinking and professional knowledge, to apply of the science and art of physical therapy. You will be empowered to move your career forward and be better prepared to become a leader in physical therapy.
All courses taken through this program are graduate level courses. While the tDPT coursework will assist toward the fulfillment of the educational requirements toward US licensure, it does not guarantee a US license. All PT’s seeking US PT licensure should follow all steps outlined by the FSBPT.
