Year 1 of 5 Osteopathic Degree – Orthopaedic Sports Massage
At Level 5 in Year 1 there is a focus on the acquisition of underpinning knowledge and skills building on what has been learnt in secondary education or previous experience in the musculoskeletal related fields. Key subject areas are introduced, alongside an exploration of the basic principles and philosophy of osteopathic practice. The modules help students to develop their self-awareness and acquire knowledge of normal human function alongside specified range of practical osteopathic skills. Emphasis is put on massage as a treatment approach, and the relationship of biomechanics to the mechanism of sports injuries.

Year 5 Validated by the Osteopathic Council of Ireland (OCI) – Combined pathway Osteopathic Degree
Osteopathic Linked Pathway
ICOM embraces the philosophy that the body has an innate natural ability to self-regulate and heal itself. Osteopathy is a “whole person”
approach to medicine and Osteopaths provide complete care to their patients, not just their symptoms. They do so by careful consideration of the
global health of each patient, creating a treatment approach appropriate for each individual’s needs.
ICOM has a long history of teaching manual therapy and is proud to be the first Osteopathic Council of Ireland (OCI) approved Osteopathic
Education Provider in Ireland. ICOM offer a 4+1year part-time Linked Pathway with Y1-4 delivered by ICOM culminating in an Osteopathic
Diploma (non-practicing). Upon successful completion of this students are then eligible to progress to a part-time 1-year BSc (Hons) programme
delivered by Plymouth Marjon University, an approved Osteopathic Education Institute in the UK
This 4 +1year pathway will allow students to become OCI recognised Osteopaths.
RATIONALE
From January 2018, the title of “Physiotherapy” along with “Physical Therapy” became protected by law, due these changes in the legislation in Ireland, ICOM decided to start a part-time Osteopathy course. As a result, since June 2019 ICOM have offered a 4 +1year part-time pathway in Osteopathy, that if successfully completed will lead to an OCI accredited qualification.
Mr. Kieran Corcoran D.O. (ICOM Director) is a qualified osteopath and registered with the OCI and he has successfully run several courses at the College in Cork. The College was started in 1994 as a platform for mature students to obtain diploma courses in Remedial Massage, Sports Therapy, Physical Therapy, Manipulative Therapy, Electrotherapy and Cranial Therapy. He also delivers CPD courses for Physiotherapists, Osteopaths, and other healthcare professionals
AIM OF THE PROGRAMME
The aims of the programme have been designed to reflect the following statement from the European Framework for Standards of Osteopathic
Practice (EFSOP).
“The primary aim of an osteopathic education provider is to educate students to become safe and effective osteopaths who are fully capable of
working autonomously in a variety of clinical settings as primary contact healthcare practitioners.”
The programme meets the academic and vocational requirements for Osteopathy published by the OCI Standards in Osteopathic Training and
Education (SOTE), the European Framework for Standards of Osteopathic Education and Training (EFSOET) and the EFSOP. The programme
aims are as follows:
To produce a competent Osteopath who fulfils the standards set out in the EFSOET and confers eligibility on them to apply for professional
registration with the OCI.
To produce a graduate demonstrating reflective, self-evaluative and critical thinking and transferable skills whilst providing safe, caring,
ethical and competent Osteopathic treatment.
To develop a graduate demonstrating a commitment to life-long learning, research and evidence-based practice, continued professional
development and business entrepreneurship.
COURSE STRUCTURE
The course is be based on the EFSOET, as Ireland does not have its own standards for Osteopathic Education.
The EFSOET approximate guide for the notional number of contact hours of study would be in the region of 4,000 – 4,800. Of this total,
osteopathic clinical training should account for no less than 1,100 hours.
Courses include the following scientific and professional underpinning studies:
Anatomy (gross, functional, integrated, applied, neurological, embryological, histological)
Physiology
Pathology
Neurology/neuroscience
Nutrition
Biochemistry
Peripheral and spinal biomechanics
Principles and philosophy of osteopathy

Closely supervised clinical practice in suitable clinical environment(s) where effective tutoring, monitoring and student assessment can take
place.
All the above subjects other than the research project will be covered within the ICOM course. Plymouth Marjon University will deliver and oversee all teaching
and learning on the 1yr BSc. This will include research methods, research proposal and professional development.

CLINIC TEACHING STRUCTURE Y1-4
Year Y1 Y2 Y3 Y4
Clinical hours Yr1: 100, Yr2: 200, Yr3: 300, Yr4: 300, Yr5 :100
Clinical hours are an essential part of the European and UK Osteopathic Standards in training requirement. The consensus is that students require a minimum of 1,000 hours of clinical training.
During that time students will peer observe and, once competent, start treating patients under the guidance of trained clinic tutors, as students become more confident and capable their level of autonomy is increased. Clinical hours are achieved by all students attending the ICOM supervised clinic. The clinic is open all year round this allows for 50-week attendance.
Clinical training and experience are documented in the form of a clinical log which is signed by the tutor at the end of each session. Students will be expected to make up any missing hours before they can achieve the Diploma.
Plymouth Marjon University (BSc Hons) Agreement has been reached with Plymouth University in the UK for ICOM students on the Linked Pathway to progress to the BSc (Hons) course, on successful completion of the 4-year Diploma.
Plymouth Marjon University is a UK recognised Osteopathic Education Institution (OEI), known as ICOM (International College of Osteopathic Medicine) .
Entry to the BSc is permitted on successful completion of the ICOM Osteopathy Diploma and documented clinical logbook.
Students are required to prepare a research proposal, to ensure they use evidence-based practice, a clinical portfolio demonstrating their professional abilities and records the variety of patients seen, it also allows students to justify their treatment (or non-treatment) approaches to patients. Communication skills are demonstrated in viva type assessments. Criticality is demonstrated in the case study and the presentation.
Address from Kieran Corcoran
I have been teaching Physical Therapy, Manipulative Therapy, Cranial Therapy and Sports Injuries here in Ireland since 1995. In that time I have seen people embark on life changing courses that allowed them to become their own boss and dictate how much income they earn!
I have seen people grow in confidence as they have gain tools and techniques to change their patient’s lives, and by doing so grow themselves as therapists.
My dream has always been to have a school of excellence and be a leader in health education in Ireland. In the 24 years that the college has been
graduating students we have achieved this and more. I am humbled and honoured to now be able to offer not only our part-time diploma courses
but also now provide Diploma graduates a progression pathway to obtain a degree in Osteopathy.
The dedicated staff at ICOM along with lecturers and tutors from Plymouth Marjon University will ensure the highest quality of course content and expertise. We will ensure all students are in a caring, nurturing learning environment.
Students will have class attendance at ICOM in Cork (Y1-4) with access to Plymouth Marjon University virtual learning environment. BSc teaching and learning will be delivered at ICOM and remotely by Plymouth Marjon University lecturers.
I am very excited to be the principal of this College and I acknowledge all my colleagues both in Ireland and Plymouth Marjon University who have helped make this
happen.
