*please note, exams are now open book with unlimited tries to complete.

** in addition to the course times listed above, there will be ~2 hrs of independent self study or asynchronous learning per week.

Registration closes: February 4th, 2025

Registration deadlines are in place to ensure the integrity of the course being offered. Therefore, a $50 late fee will be applied to any student who wishes to register once the registration deadline date has passed.

Attendance in person and in the synchronous online portions is a key piece to success in our AIM courses and only a certain amount of course time can be missed. You should not register for the course if you know in advance you will need to miss class time.

$1725.00 ($1500 + $225 H.S.T.) (Orthopaedic Division Member)
$1983.75 ($1725 + $258.75 H.S.T.) (CPA Member)
$2072.0 ($1850 + $222.00 H.S.T.) (Non-Member)

Registration will be refunded in full if the course is cancelled by the participant more than a month prior to the start of the course, less a $25.00 admin fee.
A $250.00 cancellation fee applies if you cancel your registration within a month of the start of the course. Once the course has started no refund can be issued.

** Proof of completion of Level 1 is required to begin the course. Please be able to produce the certificate upon request, but you do not need to bring to class.

The New Orthopaedic Division e-Manuals (online) are the required reference materials for this course. The fee for the e-Manuals is a ONE-TIME fee of $125.00+tax which grants you access to the clinical techniques manual for the highest Level of course you have participated in, as well as the e-Theory Manual. Your access to the “living” updated versions of the manuals will remain in place as long as you participate in an AIM Level Course every two years. If two years lapse since your last course with us, you will still have access to the manuals, but not their future updated versions.

If you have never paid the $125.00 fee you will be provided with instructions to complete the purchase prior to the start of the course.

If you have paid the $125.00 previously (including at Level 1) your access/permissions will automatically be upgraded prior to the start of the course.

There are also recommended text books along with the new e-manuals. You can start looking to purchase the following texts to compliment:

Moore’s Clinically Oriented Anatomy 8th edition – Keith Moore, Arthur Dailey, Anne Agur. Wolters Kluwer/Lippincott Williams and Wilkins 2014.
Grieve’s Modern Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy 4th Edition – Gwen Jull, Ann Moore, Deborah Falla, Jeremy Lewis, Christopher McCarthy, Michele Stirling. Elsevier 2015.
Differential Diagnosis for Physical Therapists 5th edition – Catherine Goodman, Teresa Snyder, Elsevier 2013.
