FSBPT

The Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy (FSBPT) is an organization that supports the regulation and licensing of physical therapists and assistants across the United States. It develops national exams, like the NPTE, to assess practitioners' competence and promote consistent standards of care. FSBPT also provides resources for state licensing boards, ensures legal and ethical practice, and advances the quality and safety of physical therapy services nationwide. Essentially, it helps maintain professional integrity and public trust by standardizing qualifications and overseeing licensure requirements.
