The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) as a national organization does not approve continuing education providers or courses. Rather, state chapters create their own guidelines for course approval. Many states require that PT’s and PTA’s complete a certain number of continuing education hours in order to retain their licenses; but not all of those states require that the courses themselves be approved. In the states that require approval of CE courses for PT’s and PTA’s and where PRI is hosting a live course PRI courses are approved yearly. PRI has never been denied for continuing education credit.
PRI is approved by the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork (NCBTMB) as a continuing education Approved Provider. Provider number 451877-12. *Approval not valid for New York licensed massage therapists.
Approved by the Minnesota Board of Physical Therapy for 15 hours of Category 1 continuing education credit. Approval valid March 1, 2014 - February 28, 2015. Course Approval #6460.
