Introduction
Every Physiopedia Editor has their own Profile Page. This enables us to credit all work that you do in Physiopedia back to you personally and also provides credibility to our pages showcasing the experienced professionals behind our content. Your Physiopedia profile is also a great place to promote yourself and your work to clients, colleagues and potential employers, so make sure that you keep it updated and reflective! Remember this page is publicly accessible so be professional!
Once you are logged in your profile page can be accessed from the drop down menu under Tools in the navigation bar. Click on your name to access your profile page.

Detailed Instructions
To complete or edit your profile follow the steps below.
- Access your profile page by clicking on your name under 'Tools' in the top navigation bar.
If you have not edited your profile before you will notice that it has been populated with your short bio (from your account request) and some additional sub-headings. You should now organise this information on the page. Your page should follow the new page template and include the following headings; some headings are optional and can be removed if not applicable:- About Me
- Education
- Professional Affiliations
- Professional Appointments
- Honours and Awards
- Publications
- Physiopedia Badges
- Connect with me
- Click on the Edit tab to edit your profile.
- Make changes to the text on your profile page as you wish. Use the icons in the toolbar at the top of the page to style and format the page appropriately. When you are done, click the blue Save link at the top of the page. Top tip: Save often!
- When creating your profile we would like you to do these four things:
- add a profile image,
- add additional text under each subheading where appropriate,
- delete the sub-headings that you are not using, and
- add at least one link (perhaps to your workplace or published work or presentation).
