Federal Administrative Court Red Cross fails to recognize foreign osteopathy diplomas
The Swiss Red Cross did not adhere to the requirements set by the Federal Administrative Court when examining an osteopathic training course completed in Austria. Now it has to deal with the same case a third time.

In its first decision in this case in 2022, the Federal Administrative Court stated that the complainant had trained in Austria in a profession comparable to that of a Swiss osteopath and had received specific preparation for his work. The SRC should now examine whether the qualifications obtained are sufficient.
The SRC disregarded the binding findings and did not even consider the man's application. He once again successfully appealed to the Federal Administrative Court. In the current decision, the court clearly stated the premises under which the SRC must carry out the reassessment. This is the second decision within a week in which the court has spoken clearly in a similar case.
