What does the future of physical therapy look like to you? How will you contribute to our association’s mission of building a community that advances the profession of physical therapy to improve the health of society?
We’re looking for students to submit short videos that answer these questions – and some of the best ones will be used during the Future of Physical Therapy Summit centennial event on September 13 and shared via APTA’s social media channels.
APTA is giving away APTA Centennial Journals to the first 50 students who submit videos that meet the contest requirements by the deadline.

Specific Prometric topics will include their most up-to-date processes on candidate displacements, test center availability, and policies on social distancing and mask requirements.
