The Canadian Alliance of Physiotherapy Regulators (CAPR) is a not-for-profit organization that provides standardized entry-to-practice assessment on behalf of the Canadian provincial and territorial physiotherapy regulators1.
CAPR has embarked on Evaluation Services Re-envisioned (ESR), a two-year project focused on improving and modernizing the entry-to-practice competency assessment model to prepare physiotherapists for licensure in Canada. Components of the new model include:
Physiotherapy is a regulated profession in Canada which means that individual provincial and territorial regulators set the entry-to-practice requirements for their jurisdiction. Currently, no province has approved the use of CAPR’s new entry-to-practice model. CAPR is meaningfully collaborating with system partners to ensure the assessment tools meet the needs of regulators, the public, and the profession. CAPR together with the provincial and territorial regulators are committed to communicating information as it becomes available and as decisions are made.
Please direct any inquiries to Brandi Park, National Director, Evaluation Services at Brandi.Park@alliancept.org

To improve processing times and reduce barriers for internationally educated physiotherapists, we are removing the requirement for clients to submit unsuccessful language test results.
Effective immediately, clients are only required to submit a language test when they achieve the required language test scores. CAPR can begin credentialling assessments before receiving a successful language test but cannot complete the assessment or distribute the final results letter until a successful language test has been received.
To submit your language test electronically:
1. Log in to the client portal
2. Go to the Apply tab
3. Click on the Details button
4. Scroll down to the Digital Documents section
5. Click on the Add New Digital Document button
6. Enter the required information.
For more information about CAPR’s language requirement, please see the language policy.

CAPR is proud to launch a new tool to assist clients in preparing for the Written Component of the Physiotherapy Competency Exam (PCE).
The WC – Practice Exam is mapped to the PCE Blueprint 2018 and mirrors the content and structure of the Written Component. This resource is offered through our exam delivery partner, risr/assess, and is one of the best resources for your exam preparation, as it allows you to simulate the test-taking experience before exam day.
Clients are highly encouraged to take the WC – Practice Exam; the score report provided upon completion will contain the information necessary for you to assess your strengths and weaknesses across the different domains and areas of practice tested in the exam.
Understanding your performance in the WC – Practice Exam will help you to target your study efforts. As you work through the questions, you’ll also gain a better insight into the style, language, types, and format of questions that appear on the Written Component, which may improve your confidence in taking the exam.
