The EOCE is a test designed and administered by an international board of EDO® examiners to measure the examinee’s osteopathic knowledge, application of osteopathic theory, and performance of osteopathic techniques. The EOCE has two parts: a theoretical exam and a practical exam.  Passing the EOCE demonstrates your proficiency in advanced animal osteopathy and awards you use of the trademarked EDO® title while you are a member in good standing with REDOI.   

 

Obtaining and using the EDO® title:

 

• Distinguishes you in interactions with horse owners, other equine professionals, and veterinarians in the growing unregulated animal therapy industry. 

 

• Demonstrates that you are dedicated to pursuing additional osteopathic education for equine, canine, or animal osteopathy and quality whole animal care. 

 

• Affirms your dedication to expanding your knowledge and advancing your clinical knowledge and skills throughout your career.
