    Hi
    Is the national training centre course Physical therapy recognised by the Quality and Qualifications Ireland.
    And can this qualification be recognised in America.

    You can chek the list of recognised QQI course providers on their website here: http://qsearch.qqi.ie/WebPart/Search?searchtype=providers

    I had a quick look but there didn't seem to be any listing for the NTC that I could find.

    The only one of their PT courses with academic accreditation seems to be their Masters Degree in Neuromuscular Therapy from the Uni of Chester.

    As regards USA recognition you would probably need to submit details of the qualification, grades, transcripts etc. to the relevant recognition agency in the US to get that answer. Unlike Ireland there is no one single agency for the USA and usually there is a cost attached to the verification process. You can get more info here: https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ous/international/usnei/us/edlite-visitus-forrecog.html

    Hope this helps.
