Narrative: Institutions offering a program of Chiropractic education are required to attain and hold programmatic accreditation by an agency approved for this purpose in the jurisdiction of the institution.
It is reasonable for the profession to expect that graduates have attained clinical capability with entry-level competency in the unique psychomotor skills of the discipline, namely spinal adjusting, as the highest order manipulative skill.
In this reflection I question from first-hand experience whether this expectation meets reality at the University of Southern Denmark.
