Shoulder BPG course: Best practice for rotator cuff tendinopathy based on systematic review, expert clinical reasoning and patient perspectives
The rotator cuff tendinopathy BPG contains novel, robust evidence of efficacy for all interventions in the short, medium, and long-term for the co-primary outcomes of pain, function and quality of life. This is a unique live data set that participants will have ongoing access to. The synthesis of the quantitative systematic review findings with qualitative clinical reasoning guidance derived from the interviews underpinned by patient perspectives gives unique insights on how best to select and apply interventions. The three data sets are rich individually, and give a strong, clear treatment steer when applied synergistically.
At the end of this workshop participants will have a deep insight into the evidence base for management of this common recalcitrant condition and both the clinical reasoning tools and practical skills to apply them, underpinned by a deep appreciation of patient perspectives.

Best practice for common musculoskeletal conditions based on systematic review, expert clinical reasoning and patient perspectives
Tell me more
Best evidence, best physiotherapy, best outcomes
This evening event will share the results of a 6 year intensive research programme defining best practice for common musculoskeletal conditions. After a project overview (Dylan Morrissey), the detail of how to best treat lateral elbow tendinopathy (Phil Newman), patellofemoral pain (Bradley Neal), plantar heel pain (Matt Cotchett), gluteal tendinopathy (Angie Fearon) and rotator cuff tendinopathy (DM), will be presented. There will be ample time for questions, challenges and suggestions.
As part of this event we will invite you to join a learning community with the mission to translate these research findings into everyday clinical practice.
Professor Dylan Morrissey leads an international team who have developed a method for combining best evidence to inform best physiotherapy and ensure the best outcomes for people with musculoskeletal conditions. They have published the first two guides for patellofemoral and plantar heel pain, (ref, ref) and won the PPEF silver jubilee award of ~$1.5m to produce 6 more. The guides for gluteal, rotator cuff and lateral elbow tendinopathy are nearing completion with lumbar radiculopathy and acute lateral ankle sprain well underway.
The method combines a detailed systematic review of high quality RCTs for all possible interventions, alongside qualitative elicitation of experts' clinical reasoning and patient's perspectives to provide detailed guides to practice that consider the three pillars of evidence based practice. The guides have been presented, and very well received, in 6 countries in 2025 and are being presented in Australia for the first time soon after Easter 2026.

Pain Physiotherapy Level 1 - Part B
Tell me more
The Pain Physiotherapy Level 1 course outlines the key principles of Pain and Pain Management which can be immediately transferred to practice. This course presents this foundational knowledge to support physiotherapists who are new, recently graduated or experienced (across all the different disciplines) and are looking to expand, refresh and better integrate their knowledge in the area of pain physiotherapy.
The aims of this course is to:
1. Understand the burden of pain throughout society
2. Develop a biopsychosocial model for the assessment and management of pain
3. Be able to understand the need for a person-centred approach to pain assessment and management
Part B consists of a live webinar that consolidates the learning from Part A through facilitated case study analysis and open discussion.

Disability Physiotherapy Level 1 - Part B
Tell me more
Disability Physiotherapy Level 1 aims to provide physiotherapists with the knowledge, understanding and skills to provide high quality physiotherapy services to people with a range of disabilities. In doing so, the course introduces models of practice consistent with best practice in the disability field, and highlights both commonalities and differences with other areas of physiotherapy practice. It also covers issues relating to the funding landscape within the disability sector, with a focus on the NDIS, and applies this knowledge to practice.
Disability Physiotherapy Level 1 is delivered through a blended learning model comprising three parts:
Part A: is the first component of the Disability Physiotherapy Level 1 course and consists of seven OnDemand, self-paced modules
Part B: live virtual classroom is very interactive and will include lively discussions between learners and expert presenters, with the opportunity to ask questions along the way
Part C: is practical face-to-face classroom learning
This live virtual session is Part B of the Disability Physiotherapy Level 1 course. You must attend a live virtual session in order to complete the Disability Physiotherapy Level 1 course.
