Apparently the PTG is a North American association. But I read on the PTG website that there are some RPTs outside the USA and Canada (there is one in Spain, too). Does it mean that these RPTs came to the USA to pass the exams? Or is there a possibility to become a RPT without travelling to the USA? Alejandra is from Spain. That would be a longe ride.
