tasha916 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Hi everybody, the PA profession is fairly new in the UK and they have recently started a postgrad course at my uni. I'd love to do it, I think it would be the perfect job for me, but there's a good chance i'll be moving to Canada or America in a few years time with my family. As far as I can see you have to do a specific course in the USA to be registered as a PA there, which would mean doing the entire course all over again :/ Have I got this right? Thanks :D Tasha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator rev ronin Posted November 23, 2012 Administrator Share Posted November 23, 2012 Under current rules, you understand correctly: you would need to graduate from an ARC-PA accredited program to sit for PANCE. What the future holds as far as future reciprocity is anyone's guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tasha916 Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 That's a shame really, almost seems like a waste of money to put myself through that twice. But here's the catch - I still need to be in full time study next year to be classed as a 'dependant' whilst my parents continue with the immigration process. Any suggestions of a postgrad course that would increase my chances of acceptance to a PA course in the USA or Canada? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
