What You’ll Learn in our Atlanta PTA Program
The Atlanta PTA classroom, online, laboratory, and clinical experiences will provide you with the skills you need to assist Physical Therapists in treating patients of all ages to restore function, strength, and mobility. The PTA program covers all aspects of physical therapy including inpatient and outpatient settings, orthopedics, neurorehabilitation, cardiopulmonary, pediatrics, geriatrics, sports, acute care, rehabilitation, skilled nursing, home health, wellness and prevention.
The educational and practical instruction you receive while earning your degree will prepare you to enter a broad range of medical environments where you can make a direct positive impact on your patients’ quality of life. Demand for Physical Therapist Assistants is high, which gives you the opportunity to specialize in a diverse field that aligns with your interests and professional goals.
“Physical therapy not only restores movement and provides rehabilitation, it also promotes optimal health, wellness, and prevention. As musculoskeletal experts, we treat patients of all ages in a variety of settings. With a commitment to diversity, inclusivity, and access, we are working together in building a community to restore and improve the health of individuals and society. Physical Therapy makes a positive difference in people’s lives every day. We combine the science of healing with the art of caring.” – Amy Cornell, PTA Program Director Atlanta
