Hi everybody,
I would like to get some feedback from anyone who's interested in this topic. I'm on the Emerging Leaders Advisory Board of the AZ APTA, with the intent to make being an APTA member an easy choice specifically by increased representation of PT's with under 5 years of experience. Any ideas on programs or services that would be helpful to a newer PT?
My ideas so far (I'm aware many of these things are already in place to a point):
Stronger Mentorship program
Greater Access to Evidence
Online Journal Clubs through the APTA to discuss relevant articles
Educate PT's with more experience (specifically one's without a DPT) about vision 2020, and doctoral level education.
Collaborating with other professions/professional organizations and educating them about physical therapy
How to manage their debt
Becoming politically involved
