How does the Kaiser Hayward certification compare with other manual therapy certifications in the U.S.?
A. Currently there are no national standards for manual therapy certifications. Each is very different in expectations and standards. Completing a certification demonstrates that you have been evaluated or tested according to a standard of performance established by the program. It definitely bears more weight than a certificate of completion. You will need to evaluate the advantages of a certification based on the part of the country where you are employed. In some areas, the APTA clinical specialist certification would be more important to achieve.
