IPTOP conference summaries

IPTOP encourages collaboration between its member organisations, both to provide opportunities to network and to learn. The IPTOP Committee attempt to provide educational opportunities for members every two years by organising stand-alone Conferences or by participating in the programme of the WCPT Congresses. IPTOP seeks invitations from its member organisations willing to collaborate so members can attend such conferences.

The events section of the WCPT website provides an expanded conference/events list including conferences that may be of interest to physical therapists working with older people. To include your event on the list or enquire about an advertisement please contact Rachel Moore at WCPT.
