Community Therapy Assistant Program

The Community Therapy Assistant (CTA) Program was created to train Nunavummiut to assist in the delivery of rehabilitation services. Under the supervision of rehabilitation professionals in regional centres, Community Therapy Assistants will be qualified to assist in implementing physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech-language  pathology and audiology programs in the communities. This capacity-building initiative will create in-territory educational and employment opportunities for Nunavummiut.

Students will gain specific knowledge regarding the rehabilitation disciplines of physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology and audiology; and the therapeutic skills required for assisting in the delivery of rehabilitation programs in
Nunavut.
