Obtaining a physical therapy license in the United States as a foreign-trained physical therapy professional can be a multi-step process. Here are three basic steps to get you started:

 

 

 

 

 

1.Credential Evaluation:

Contact the Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy (FSBPT) to determine the specific requirements for foreign-trained physical therapists in the state where you intend to practice. Each state may have slightly different requirements.
Typically, you will need to have your educational credentials evaluated by a credentialing agency approved by the FSBPT. The most commonly accepted agency for this purpose is the Foreign Credentialing Commission on Physical Therapy (FCCPT) or another agency recognized by the state licensing board.

Submit your transcripts, diplomas, and other required documentation to the credentialing agency for evaluation. They will assess your education and determine if it is equivalent to the education required for U.S. license.

 

 

 

 

 

2.DEBE APROBAR EL EXAMEN NACIONAL:

National Physical Therapy Exam (NPTE):

Once your educational credentials are deemed equivalent, you will need to pass the National Physical Therapy Exam (NPTE). This is a standardized examination administered by the FSBPT.

Register for the NPTE and prepare for the exam by studying relevant materials and taking practice tests.
After passing the NPTE, you will receive a passing score report, which is a crucial requirement for the licensing application process.

 

 

 

 

 

3.State License Application:

Contact the state licensing board in the state where you plan to practice and obtain your application for licensure as a foreign-trained physical therapist.
Complete the application, providing all required documentation, including proof of passing the NPTE and the credential evaluation report.

Pay any application fees and meet any additional state-specific requirements, such as a criminal background check or jurisprudence exam.

Once your application is approved, you will be issued a physical therapy license in that particular state, allowing you to practice legally in that jurisdiction.

EN ALGUNOS ESTADOS PUEDE VARIAR:

It’s essential to note that the specific requirements and processes may vary from state to state, so it’s crucial to research the exact requirements for the state where you intend to practice and follow their guidelines closely. Additionally, some states may have additional requirements, such as clinical internships or English language proficiency exams, so be sure to check with the specific state licensing board for comprehensive information.
