You can only become a specialist after you’ve been a PT for at least a year and working in one of the specialty areas. After you become a PT, if you want to specialize, you would begin gaining clinical experience in these areas. Most require 2000 hours in the specialty area. You then register to take the exam.
To become a physical therapist, is takes 6-7 years of education. Being a new graduate and without any board specialty certification, you can earn anywhere from about $55,000 to about $62,000…experience and certification increase your salary from there.
