The National Physiotherapist Assistant Assembly (NPAA) represents the unique interests and needs of practising and student physiotherapist assistants & TRPs in Canada, and is actively engaged in the growth and advancement of their roles in the physiotherapy profession.
From within our membership, we elect our own volunteer leaders to showcase our position in the Canadian Physiotherapy Association (CPA) and to the physiotherapy profession community. We are also active throughout the year to communicate with schools offering physiotherapy assistant programs, and to enhance our skills by sourcing continuing education for our colleagues from coast to coast.
Our members benefit from the networking, professional development and ability to have a direct voice in shaping the future of physiotherapist assistants & TRPs in Canada. We regularly update our members through newsletters and social media to keep them abreast with developments and highlights. CPA membership is held in high regard within the profession. We listen to our members and aim high while we work together to enhance the health of Canadians.
