Foreign Credentialing Commission on Physical Therapy (FCCPT)

The Foreign Credentialing Commission on Physical Therapy (FCCPT) is an organization that evaluates the educational qualifications and credentials of physical therapists who obtained their training outside the United States. Its main goal is to ensure that foreign-trained professionals meet U.S. standards for practice. This process is vital for those looking to work in the U.S. as it helps employers and licensing boards assess the qualifications of these individuals, ensuring they have the necessary skills and knowledge to provide safe and effective care.
