Continuing Professional Development
Catalyst courses are designed to support the continuing professional development (CPD) of physiotherapists and allied health professionals in Malaysia.
Continuing Professional Development in Malaysia
In Malaysia, ongoing CPD is an important part of maintaining and developing professional competency for physiotherapists and allied health professionals, including within the framework of the Allied Health Professions Act 2016 (Act 774).
Catalyst courses are built to support your CPD through structured, assessed learning with documented learning hours and verifiable certificates.
Please note: Catalyst is not a licensing, registration, or accreditation authority. Whether a particular course counts toward a formal CPD, registration, or licensing requirement depends on your professional body, employer, or regulator. We recommend confirming your specific requirements with them before enrolling.
