Practice Promotion and Management

Practice Promotion and Management

"for the successful therapist"

You may be the most competent therapist that has ever walked on the planet, but if you have no knowledge of managing your business it will be of little help in keeping you employed. We believe is one of the most important courses you could ever take.

Appeal

To all therapists who would like to start a Practice, and to anyone who has their own practice and would like to see it more profitable. It would be an ideal second or parallel course for students who would like to plan out a Practice strategy for the time they qualify in their therapy.

Intention

To equip the student with all basic business skills to start a therapy Practice, be it clinic, or domiciliary based. The main emphasis of the course is pivoted on caution, and encourages the student to walk before they run. At the same time enforcing the importance of steady planed growth.
