Hi All,
I am currently working with off-the-shelf orthotics and am looking into
further education for orthotics and prosthetics (eventually seeking
certification/licensure). I have a BA, an MS in Athletic Training, am a
Certified Athletic Trainer, and am a Certified Strength and Conditioning
Specialist. My educational background has allowed me to fulfill the
prerequisites for an O and P program. However, I was wondering if anyone
had recommendations or experience with distance learning programs for O and
P that would allow me to sit for the certification exam.
I am new to the industry, but I feel that I have really found my fit in
terms of a career. I would really appreciate any insight, direction, or
advice. I'd like to fully examine all my options and make the most educated
decision before committing to more schooling. Please feel free to share
your opinion of programs or methods to obtaining certification. I have
examined the requirements on the ABC and BOC websites and the programs
listed there.
Thank you very much!
