Certification
As part of the process of improving the professionalism of Pedorthics, APMGFA has developed a certification process for individuals that provide pedorthic services and products.
Certification is available at three levels to cover the three types of provision of service and advice.
The levels are:
CPed CM Au for individuals that provide a full service to the client including advice on the possibilities of Medical Grade Footwear and custom made footwear where ready made products are not suitable.
CPed Au or individuals that provide advice on the provision of medical grade footwear and modify ready made product to match the requirements of the patient.
CRetPed for individuals that provide advice and ready made footwear for patients.
The benefits of the Certification Process are:
Independent recognition of the competency of the Pedorthists.
Improving the confidence of the public, including doctors, government and medical insurance companies in the pedorthic industry.
Publication of the Certified Pedorthists at all levels of the industry.
