Physical Therapy Assistant

The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) is an individual membership professional organization representing more than 100,000 member physical therapists (PTs), physical therapist assistants (PTAs), and students of physical therapy.

The Florida Physical Therapy Association is the only healthcare professional organization that solely represents the special interests of practicing physical therapists and physical therapist assistants in the state of Florida.

The national physical therapy exam (NPTE®) for PTs and PTAs is an essential part of the licensing process. Learn how to get started and what you need to know before, during and after the exam.

The Florida Board of Physical Therapy, through efficient and dedicated organization, will license, monitor, discipline, educate, and when appropriate, rehabilitate practitioners to assure their competence in the service of the people of Florida.
