Why choose the Standard Assessment Pathway?

The Standard Assessment Pathway is the most trusted and commonly used pathway for international physiotherapists wanting to work in Australia.

It is designed to help you build the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to meet Australia’s entry-level standards and join the physiotherapy workforce successfully.

Access the Interim Certificate and start working sooner

By completing the Eligibility Assessment and Cultural Safety Training for Physiotherapists, you can receive your Interim Certificate in as little as 4 weeks.

This certificate allows you to:

• Work under supervision in Australia

• Gain Australian clinical experience

• Prepare for your clinical assessments with real-world practice

• Better understand cultural safety needs

Many international physiotherapists who have completed the Standard Assessment Pathway have told us that working under supervision was a key part of their success—helping them better understand the Australian context and approach to patient care.

A trusted pathway that employers recognise

Completing a Council assessment pathway shows employers you meet the entry-level standard to practice safely and effectively in Australia.

Your Final Certificate is trusted proof that you're ready to work as a physiotherapist.
