To sit for the certification exam, you must be a licensed physical therapist or physician who has taken all of the required courses through the College of Osteopathic Medicine.
The exam is divided into two sections:
Practical and Oral exams: Five testing stations where you will be asked to set up a patient for treatment, demonstrate a treatment, perform a screening sequence, etc. The written exam will be graded separately from the oral and the practical exams. You will need to pass the written exam and each station of the practical with 75% to receive a certificate of completion. If one section is failed and you pass the others, we will offer a retake in the future.
NOTE: This certification is not for the purpose of licensure or accreditation. It does not change board certification status, guarantee professional state licensure, or guarantee insurance reimbursement for OMT procedures.
