Abstract

This paper provides an overview of the current situation and characteristics of courses on physiotherapy in Hungary. The research aimed to map the training opportunities for physiotherapy professionals. The authors analysed available Hungarian courses on the Internet, examining the type of courses, teaching methods, duration, cost, target audience, instructor qualifications, as well as the nature of exams and certificates. A total of 26 courses were examined, specialising in various areas and professional needs. A wide range of courses is available, providing professionals with opportunities for further professional development and the acquisition of new techniques. Courses can be taken in person, through blended/hybrid learning, or online. Teaching methods include instructor videos, practical demonstrations, online materials, and lectures. The instructors are typically physiotherapists or specialised doctors. The courses are generally of shorter duration, and online courses become immediately accessible after payment. Participants receive a certificate upon completion of the courses, and some courses require a final test or exam. The prices of the courses are generally affordable, but longer and qualification-providing courses may be more expensive. In conclusion, the paper highlights the wide range of physiotherapy education options available in Hungary, offering professionals opportunities for further professional development and the mastery of the latest techniques.
