Interdisciplinary Therapy Assistant Diploma Program

In 2019, NorQuest College’s Physical Therapy Assistant Diploma program evolved into the new Interdisciplinary Therapy Assistant (ITA) program. Driven by expressed needs of industry stakeholders to provide integrated, client-centred, and cost-effective care, the ITA program uniquely prepares graduates to assist with physical, occupational, recreational, and speech-language therapy. In 2021, the program was recognized with a six-year accreditation award, demonstrating the high-quality effectiveness of both engaging on-campus and highly interactive online delivery. The program’s strength is in its dedicated team, as well as exceptional partnerships with interdisciplinary stakeholders across the province.
