Overview
The Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) Certification is a comprehensive blended learning course designed to equip participants with the knowledge and practical skills required to assess an individual’s physical capabilities in relation to job demands.
This course combines asynchronous online learning with a 1-day in-person hands-on session, allowing participants to build foundational knowledge at their own pace and apply it in a practical, supervised environment.
FCEs play a critical role in occupational health, disability management, and return-to-work planning. This course provides a structured and evidence-informed approach aligned with industry best practices.
