Physiotherapy Competency Examination — FAQs Who Takes the Exam? Canadian-educated and internationally educated graduates of physiotherapy programs take the Physiotherapy Competency Examination (PCE), regardless of their experience. Most regulators in Canada include passing the PCE as part of their entry-to-practice process. If you are an internationally educated graduate of a physiotherapy program, The Alliance must evaluate your credentials before you can take the PCE. The Educational Credentials and Qualifications Assessment will determine whether your education and qualifications are substantially equivalent to those of a Canadian-educated physiotherapist. 6
Physiotherapy Competency Examination — FAQs Applying for the Exam When you apply for an exam, you need to fill in the application form completely, and you need to include all the required documents with your application. Why did you return my application form? If you do not fill in the application form completely, or if you do not include all the required documents, we will return your application. We send a memo with the returned application so that you can correct the problem. Some of the common problems with applications are: • Your name on the application does not match the name in our records. • You have not completed one or more sections of the application. • You forgot to include your payment. • You forgot to include the Declaration of Identification (this is new for 2011). • You forgot to include a second identical photograph with your Declaration of Identification. I used express/courier service to send my exam application form to you. Why did you return my application to me by regular mail? When we are responsible for a delay we will use a courier service. We use regular mail for all normal correspondence with you unless you request and pay for courier service. Why wasn’t I assigned to my first choice of exam site? If your first choice site is full, we automatically assign you to another site. If space becomes available at your first choice site later, we will move you. Why am I on the wait list for the Clinical Component? We keep a wait list for the Clinical Component until we can confirm the size of the sites. We can usually assign all the candidates from the wait list to a site approximately three months after the application deadline date. 7
