Question regarding Physiotherapy Course

A KS made this Official Information request to Auckland University of Technology

The request was partially successful.

From: A KS

Dear Auckland University of Technology,

Few years back, AUT was running a 1 year diploma program for overseas physiotherapists which acted like a bridging course for the students to study about NZ healthcare and physiotherapy practice here. I checked AUT website and cannot find that course being offered any more.

I shall be thankful if you could reply to my following queries

1:- Please tell in which year that diploma started and in which year the diploma was discontinued.

2:- Please provide details of total number or students enrolled and total number of students passed ( per year when course was running).

3:-Please tell ,at the moment, is AUT offering any other similar program in place of the discontinued program ( in which overseas trained and non NZ registered Physios are eligible to enrol.)

4:- Please tell whether AUT has a plan to restart that discontinued program or a similar program in any future academic session as absence of such program is a big loss to overseas trained physiotherapists and indirectly to the NZ healthcare sector.

Thanks in anticipation.

Yours faithfully,

A KS

Hi

I'm sorry but I've been confused by overlapping requests that have some of the same questions - the response was to a request originally made at the end of August.

I now see that you sent a second request in December (below) that asks for additional information - this request will be subject to the OIA requirements and given AUT has been closed over the summer, I estimate we would not be able to respond until 22nd January.

Regards
Alison
