To practice physiotherapy in Québec as a physiotherapist or physiotherapy technologist, you must obtain a license and become a registered member of the Ordre professionnel de la physiothérapie du Québec (OPPQ).
An OPPQ license certifies that you meet the basic requirements to practice physiotherapy. You must also become a registered member before you are permitted to practice your profession. To register, you must pay the annual membership fee.
The process varies depending on your situation
The OPPQ admissions process varies depending on:
- Where and when you obtained your physiotherapy degree or diploma
- Whether you already hold a regular license to practice in a Canadian province or territory
