While the College recognizes that physiotherapists are self-directed, motivated adult learners who do continually look to maintain and improve their competence, the importance of ensuring a profession-wide dissemination of new information and understanding of topics is in our best interests as a profession.
In an effort to meet the goal of a wide dissemination of information, CPM Council agreed to making participation in some continuing education mandatory for both the renewal or conversion of licenses for existing registrants, as well as for the licensing of new registrants of the College. The name “College Selected Activity” was chosen to encompass the topics of jurisprudence, ethical decision making, and other topics based on professional and public interest issues.
The College Selected Activity for Active registration in 2026 is titled “Informed Consent for Physiotherapists”.
This course was created to support physiotherapists’ knowledge and application of consent requirements and best practices.
The College of Physiotherapists of Manitoba acknowledges with thanks The College of Physiotherapists of Alberta from which this module was adapted and modified.
The completion of this College Selected Activity is a requirement for all physiotherapists renewing their license to practice on the Active Practice Register in 2026 OR converting to the Active Practice Register in 2026. The deadline to complete this module is December 5, 2025.
