New Students

Why do so many physiotherapy students join the CSP? Here are ten good reasons:

1. Chartered status on graduation for only £20 (compared to £195 for non-member graduates)
2. The latest physiotherapy news, features and jobs delivered direct to you in CSP's Frontline magazine, e-news bulletin, and student newsletter
3. Expert advice any time from a dedicated Students' Officer and our Enquiry Handling Unit
4. Peer support from thousands of physiotherapists on www.interactivecsp.org.uk, with its dedicated online student network
5. £5 million of protection through Professional Liability Insurance (PLI) cover for clinical placement and elective activity worldwide*
6. Downloadable learning resources from the member-only area of the CSP website, including publications, information papers, articles and the quarterly Physiotherapy journal
7. Online CPD ePortfolio to record and evidence your professional knowledge and skills from university and beyond
8. Free student handbook and employment pack - your essential guides to studying to become a physiotherapist and finding your first job

   All this for only £32** a year - that's less than 9p a day or less than the cost of a pint a month!

9. Representation carried out by a network of specially trained student reps and co-ordinators, at local, regional and national level, working to ensure that your voice is heard
10. Expert lobbying on your behalf - particularly aimed at improving job prospects for physiotherapy graduates
