Occupational Health Physiotherapy Level 1
The Occupational Health Physiotherapy Level 1 course will broaden your scope of practice through delivering the latest knowledge and skills to match contemporary practice and its evidence-based underpinnings. Participants will be challenged to consider the foundations on which their decisions are made in order to future-proof their Occupational Health practice.
The course will deepen your understanding of the importance of workplace safety systems, leadership, the climate of safety and the risk management process as applied to health promotion, and injury prevention. Key population health issues in most workplaces including chronic diseases in addition to mental health disorders and musculoskeletal disorders are outlined. Practical skills are cemented through in-depth musculoskeletal tasks risk assessments, good work design ergonomic scenarios, and office equipment evaluation and application.
Social culture, inclusivity, and workplace leadership are incorporated so participants can implement effective and equitable occupational health workplace strategies and, through nuanced communication skills, are able to lead positive workplace conversations and manage difficult conversations with stakeholders.
Optimal Return to Work pathways and barriers are identified and workshopped for common and complex scenarios using the most recent evidence-based screening, assessment and communication tools and processes.
The principles of good work design are integrated with the physical, cognitive and organisational components of human factors/ergonomics into office and onsite ergonomic scenario analysis.
A range of training formats including video analysis, group discussions, ergonomic equipment demonstration and practical sessions throughout the two days course strengthens occupational health skills across the seven modules – Legislation, Risk Management, Systems of work, Leadership and Safety Climate and a Culture of Safety, Communication, Ergonomics, and Injury management.

Dry Needling Physiotherapy Level 1 - Part B
Tell me more
Physiotherapists are increasingly using dry needling for pain management and thereby improving function in conjunction with other physiotherapy approaches. This structured course meets the national APA and AHPRA recommendations for physiotherapists to practice dry needling safely for musculoskeletal conditions and sports injuries.
The sound knowledge of indications and contraindications for dry needling requires appropriate assessment and treatment skills. This course is designed to provide physiotherapists an opportunity to improve knowledge and skills of dry needling, and make them aware of guidelines for safe dry needling practices in a range of musculoskeletal conditions.
The Dry Needling Physiotherapy Level 1 course consists of two separate parts:
- Part A consists of seven recorded lectures and is self-paced online learning. On completion of Part A, participants will have a good knowledge of the theory, research and safety considerations of dry needling. Part A is a pre-requisite for the Part B face-to-face practical course. It is also valuable as refresher training or CPD.
- Part B face to face, practical course. This course will assume the knowledge gained from Part A. Through group discussion, presentations and a written theory evaluation during the practical, this course will ensure participants can safely needle a range of body areas and conditions.
A visual representation of the structure of this course can be found in this diagram.

Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy Cervical Spine Level 1 - Part B
Tell me more
Build your confidence in assessing and managing common neck disorders with Cervical Spine Level 1. This course develops a contemporary understanding of cervical spine presentations, associated pathophysiology and the clinical reasoning needed to interpret patient findings within a biopsychosocial framework.
Through blended online learning and practical face-to-face training, participants will strengthen their examination skills, identify meaningful outcome measures and develop evidence-informed, patient-specific management plans. The course supports physiotherapists to apply and progress multimodal management strategies with greater clarity, confidence and clinical precision.
Important note: The Part A OnDemand theory component of this course is critical to successful participation in the Part B face-to-face session and must be completed before you attend. You will be asked to bring the Certificate of Completion from Part A to the Part B face-to-face session.

Network & Learn: Toe Walking in Autism - Panel Discussion & Shared Learning
The evening will feature a panel discussion focused on toe walking in autistic children, with a general emphasis on considerations relevant to early intervention in metro and rural community-based services. Our panel will share different perspectives on assessment, clinical reasoning and management approaches, including considerations around when referral to tertiary or specialist services may be appropriate. The representative from the team at PCH will provide the tertiary perspective.
There will be opportunities for questions, discussion and shared learning throughout the evening, with a focus on practical considerations that clinicians may encounter in everyday practice. This will be a relaxed and interactive opportunity to hear from others working in paediatrics, share experiences and ideas, and connect with colleagues across the WA paediatric community.
Pizza will be provided, so come along for an evening of networking, shared learning and conversation.
