AMP is pleased to announce that the Hand Therapy Certification Commission (HTCC) has recently selected AMP to provide computer-based test administration, scoring and reporting services. HTCC offers an advanced practice credential for occupational therapists and physical therapists who specialize in hand therapy, which is the art and science of rehabilitation of the upper limb, including the hand, wrist, elbow and shoulder girdle. HTCC’s mission is to support a high level of competence in hand therapy practice and to advance the specialty through a formal credentialing process for the Certified Hand Therapist (CHT). CHTs must understand the intricate anatomy of the arm and hand while mastering the technical complexity of rehabilitation. Administration of the CHT exam is scheduled to begin May 2010 in the AMP Assessment Center Network. To learn more about HTCC, please visit www.htcc.org.
