An orthopedic assessment course can be a challenge for some students. It is a lot of new information that required previous knowledge and it is foundational to working with the public in clinical placements. What is in it for students? Consider:

• The course provided important knowledge and structure for an emerging therapist
• Assessment links the client’s complaints with how to treat them
• Assessment is essential for clinical work
• Being competent in assessment allows for success in the provincial Entrance to Practice exams
• The course allows peers to practice in a safe environment
• Students can work together on authentic cases (things they will see when they are out in practice)
• Students can get timely feedback on performance with appropriate time and space.
