Which statement about CAPTE accreditation in Scotland is true?

Explanation:
CAPTE is the U.S.-based accrediting body for physical therapy education, and its international footprint is relatively limited. In Scotland, only a single physical therapy program has earned CAPTE accreditation, so the statement that CAPTE accredits one PT program there reflects the current situation. Most Scottish PT programs are accredited by UK/European bodies rather than CAPTE, which explains why the number isn’t higher.
