The Importance of Serving

 Since FSBPT^® was founded in 1987, volunteers have helped us work through the many different challenges we've faced. From promoting uniform standards nationwide to developing the National Physical Therapy Examination (NPTE^®), volunteers and FSBPT staff have worked together to protect the American public by promoting safe and competent physical therapy care.

Our volunteers play a major role in advancing our mission. They participate on our committees and task forces, serve on our board of directors, and apply their skills as item writers for the NPTE.

Here’s a glimpse of what our incredible volunteers have to share about their experiences!

• “This is one of the best volunteer experiences I have had. Thank you!”
• “Far exceeded my expectations.”
• "The experience has gone well beyond my expectations; I have learned much more about the test development process.”
• “I so appreciate the opportunity to serve because of the amazing people at FSBPT.”
• “SO MUCH MORE than I could have ever imagined! … I have made great contacts, learned about test writing, recognized the importance of creating a quality licensing exam.”
