The College The College is the self-regulatory authority responsible for registering and governing physiotherapists in Ontario. Its authority comes from the Regulated Health Professions Act, 1991(RHPA) and the professions specific Physiotherapy Act, 1991. There are 26 similar bodies in Ontario that regulate other health professions. The mandate of the College is to protect the public interest by ensuring that members of the profession are qualified, competent, and ethical practitioners. This starts when an applicant seeks to be registered with the College. As such, the Entry to Practice program is a key area within the College as it relates to this mandate, ensuring the College only registers physiotherapists who can provide competent and ethical care. Organizations interested in submitting a proposal are strongly encouraged to review and understand the RHPA, the Physiotherapy Act, as well as additional background on the College through our website at www.collegept.org. Appendix 1 provides an overview of some of the primary sources of information on the College, entry to practice program, and examinations.
