Our Story

Built on a Foundation of Real-World Results

Matheson was founded by Roy Matheson in 1988 with a single mission: to give rehabilitation professionals the tools they need to deliver accurate, defensible, and practical assessments.

What began as a single course in functional capacity evaluation has grown into a comprehensive education platform — spanning certifications, workshops, live streams, and on-demand learning — trusted by professionals across North America and beyond.

We are AOTA and BOC approved, and our methodology continues to be shaped by the latest research and the evolving needs of the professionals we serve.
