The Arthritis Society is committed to educating healthcare professionals in the most up-to-date arthritis identification, care and management best practices.

The Clinical Practice Skills for Inflammatory Arthritis (CPSIA) is an annual professional development program that has evolved with the evidence and the learning needs of today’s interdisciplinary team. The program progressively develops the participants’ clinical practice skills over a 4-day period through a blend of online, didactic, interactive and experiential learning on the most prevalent arthritis conditions. Participants who complete all of the program requirements receive a Certificate of Program Completion issued by The Arthritis Society.

The CPSIA is suitable for a wide range of professionals who provide client-centred healthcare to people with arthritis across a continuum of settings and stage of disease. (The program does not address childhood arthritis). Graduates include Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Registered Nurses and Nurse Practitioners, many of whom have successfully completed the Advanced Clinician Practitioner in Arthritis Care (ACPAC) program.
