Are you planning to work in US?

If you wish to practice osteopathy in the states (our profession is known as osteopathic manual practice in the States) you should choose an osteopathy school that is accredited by the US Council on Osteopathic Manual Practice Education (COMPE).

The alumni of osteopathy schools accredited by COMPE are able to write the board exams administered by the American Osteopathic Manual Practice Examining Board (AOMPEB). Those who pass the board exams can then apply to the American Association of Osteopathic Manual Practice (AAOMP) for membership.

Upon joining AAOMP as a member you will be awarded with the title of COMP (Certified Osteopathic Manual Practitioner). AAOMP has copyrighted the title of COMP and only its members are permitted to use this title.

NAO (Canada) is an accredited member of COMPE. Our alumni are permitted to sit for the board exams of AOMPEB and to join AAOMP upon graduation. Most osteopathic manual practitioners in the states are our alumni.

  1. I looked on Google and I can't find any reference to the US Council on Osteopathic Manual Practice Education (COMPE) or the American Osteopathic Manual Practice Examining Board (AOMPEB) or even the American Association of Osteopathic Manual Practice (AAOMP).
    Can you please provide us with relevant website urls?
