The Földi College provides MLD/CDT Certification Courses as well as MLD/CDT Review Courses and Clinic workshops. The aim is to provide comprehensive, scientifically based theoretical and practical training in the field of Manual lymphatic Drainage / Complete Decongestive therapy (MLD/CDT), culminating in a recognised qualification.

Teaching is provided by professional instructors for MLD/CDT.

Conditions for admission

The following professions are eligible for admission to the courses:  Physiotherapists, massage therapists and doctors. Important: Professional qualifications must be fully completed before commencing  courses at the Földi College. When registering online, please send a copy of your professional qualification (mail or fax) to the Földi College.

The Földi College reserves the right to decide on admission to the training courses. Admission can not take place when the conditions for admission are not fully fulfilled, or when evidence is available that, having been verified, would provide grounds for a refusal of permit.

Training

The course content is Manual Lymphatic Drainage / Complete Decongestive Therapy (MLD/CDT).  Training takes place over 15 days in total, comprising theoretical and practical training, and it ends with an exam (written and practical).

Medical training encompasses anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology of the lymph vascular system. Extensive knowledge of pathology will also be taught, as it is the essential foundation for the practical application of therapy. MLD  techniques, their medical indications and methodological application are taught in practical training sessions with tutorials. Instruction in bandaging techniques is also provided for primary and secondary lymphoedema of the limbs, lipoedema, traumatic oedemas and venous oedema. The knowledge and skills needed for decongestive remedial therapy are also provided.

Examination regulations

The training course is completed with an examination which takes place after completion of training on the last day of the course. During the examination the skills learned during the training course must be verified in a theoretical and a practical exam. The precondition for admission to the examination is the participation in the entire 15-day training program.

The examination is passed when all parts of the exam have been graded at least “sufficient”. Each examination part may be repeated for a maximum of two times. The examination committee decides if the failed part of the exam, or a part of the training course must be repeated. Participants must carry the resultant costs.

Disorderly conduct

At the beginning of the examination students will be informed of the consequences of disorderly conduct. Disorderly conduct by a student during the examination, particularly in the form of deception or attempted deception will lead to their immediate exclusion; the examination shall be considered to be failed. Disorderly conduct and subsequent decisions on further action will be recorded in the examination log, and signed by the members of the examination committee.

Certificate

Succesfull candidates completing the MLD/CDT Certification Course will receive a certificate.
