Osteopathy Australia's transition to practice program recognises that the move from studying to working as an osteopath is a challenging time. In Osteopathy Australia-delivered workshops, our participants receive a snapshot of osteopathy within the allied health industry and learn from the best, gain insights with thought leadership from key stakeholders, and take advantage of unique opportunities to network with your peers in person and online in ways that will positively and significantly impact your professional life.
