This is the results of my search and listserve responses for Orthotic Fitter Courses:
A 5-day course will be available in December that will not be sponsored or limited to a single vender/manfacturer...possibly without the corporate bias, and the range of fitting topics and orthoses covered should not be limited to those sold by the manufacturer. The site <URL Redacted> should be updated soon to include this course. I am told that it is also ABC and BOC approved. Contact: <Email Address Redacted> .
Trulife has a 5-day course in Oct., see: <URL Redacted> .
DeRoyal has a 4-day course in Oct., see: <URL Redacted> .
Freeman has a 2-day course in Oct., see: http://www.freemanmfg.com/services.html .
Surgical Appliance has a 4-5-day course in Oct., see: http://www.surgicalappliance.com/description.html .
Also reported is that OttoBock has been certified by NCOPE for a similar course.
