CGFNS UNIVERSITY LAUNCHES eCOACH LEARNING SERVICES PHYSICAL THERAPY REMEDIATION PROGRAM

News Release

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: February 25, 2014

CGFNS UNIVERSITY LAUNCHES eCOACH LEARNING SERVICES PHYSICAL THERAPY REMEDIATION PROGRAM

CGFNS University today announced the launch of a new service to assist internationally educated physical therapists and physical therapist assistants in developing education remediation plans to meet requirements of evaluation tools for licensure and immigration. The eCoach Learning Services Physical Therapy Remediation Program offers applicants one-on-one consultation with a physical therapist who serves as a remediation coach to develop a remediation plan that addresses educational deficiencies identified through the Coursework Tool evaluations.

CGFNS International, and its independent division, International Consultants of Delaware (ICD), have provided education evaluations of internationally educated physical therapists and physical therapist assistants for over 35 years. Many of these evaluations have identified deficiencies in both the general and professional education content of the applicants’ programs of study. These deficiencies must be remediated before a physical therapist or physical therapist assistant can be declared eligible for the National Physical Therapy Examination by the Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy (FSBPT) and before an internationally educated physical therapist can be approved for a VisaScreen® certificate, which is a requirement for obtaining an occupational visa to practice in the United States.

“Applicants with deficiencies,” said Franklin A. Shaffer, EdD, RN, FAAN and CEO of CGFNS International, “have expressed difficulty in identifying schools and programs in which they can make up deficiencies, and have contacted CGFNS and ICD for assistance. We are pleased to now formally offer that assistance. The eCoach Learning Services Physical Therapy Remediation Program ensures preapproval of remediation course for re-evaluation under the same Coursework Tool through CGFNS International or ICD.”
