If your employee enrolls in a program at SOMT University of Physiotherapy, you are unfortunately not eligible for the WVA scheme as an employer.
If you do not have the required diploma and subject combination/profile, and therefore do not meet the additional admission requirements, you will need to take supplementary exams. These exams are organized by the CCVX. With the exception of Mathematics, these exams are conducted in Dutch. The Mathematics exam can be taken in both English and Dutch.
If you are a Master’s-level Physical Therapist and would like to provide continuing or in-service training with us, please contact our coordinator for continuing education. We place great importance on quality, so not all proposals will be accepted. Key criteria include scientific evidence and extensive teaching experience.
Each course, masterclass, and symposium is assessed to determine for which KNGF register accreditation is requested. If accreditation is granted, the corresponding points are listed under the “Accreditation” section of the relevant event. In some cases, accreditation may still be pending at the start of the event; this will also be indicated on the website. No rights can be derived from the accreditation points listed on the website.
In certain cases, it is possible to obtain exemptions. Relevant work experience or previously completed (partial) programs may be taken into account. After enrollment, the examination board will assess your individual situation. The evaluation is based on your personal circumstances and academic results.
We recommend contacting us during the application process to discuss whether your prior education or experience may qualify for exemptions. Please contact us for more information about the procedure.
