2023 has, in many ways, been defined by the review initiated by the Swedish Higher Education Authority (UKÄ) of the educational program at the School of Naprapathy.

During December, the Swedish Higher Education Authority (UKÄ), together with an assessment panel consisting of physiotherapists, a naprapath, and chiropractors, conducted a site visit at the School of Naprapathy. The visit included interviews with various staff categories and student representatives, as well as a tour of the college's facilities. The assessment panel's report, which will determine whether the college meets the requirements for higher education, is expected in February/March 2024. We recognize how important and positive all forms of supervision and review are for contributing to the quality development of our operations. The lessons we have learned from this process will form the basis for our upcoming quality plan.

Our reflection during this process is that our students, upon graduation, are well-prepared to conduct evidence-based work as naprapaths, both independently and in collaboration with other healthcare providers, and have developed a genuine commitment to lifelong learning. We are proud of that!

Thank you for this year!
