The examination consists of multi-level testing with written, viva & practical components designed to assess the clinical knowledge and skills developed by the practitioner throughout the course curriculum. The CMP Examination will be taken by two examiners (internal & external examiner). Internal examiner will be Deepak Kumar from India while external examiner will be some other certified Mulligan Concept Teacher from US / Europe / Australia or New Zealand.
The purpose of conducting CMP examination and recognizing such clinicians is two fold: As a referral source for clinicians and for the patients seeking treatment from physical therapists who have achieved a recognized level of competence in the Mulligan Concept. The process of CMP credentialing will assist clinicians who are interested in having their knowledge based skills and competence in the Mulligan Concept evaluated, by providing a peer review/examination process. It is anticipated that the individuals with CMP credentials will have improved treatment outcomes.
Clinicians, who have attended the course, but not practiced it and have not used Brian Mulligan 5th edn. text and the hand out given during the workshop as a clinical resource and guide for developing further understanding and skills in the Mulligan Concept, may find the CMP credentialing exam very challenging.
It is also important to note here that individuals who qualify the CMP exam are NOT entitled to teach the Mulligan Concept. Upon successful completion of the examination process these clinicians will be recognized as Certified Mulligan Practitioner – CMP (a reputed qualification as Manual Therapists) and their names will be listed on the official website of Mulligan concept www.bmulligan.com and will be referred / recommended to clinicians and the general public seeking treatment from physical therapists who have achieved a recognized level of competence in the Mulligan Concept.
