Abstract
This article aims to highlight the developments in European osteopathic education since the turn of the century by discussing seven drivers of change, namely growth of the profession, government regulation, international standards, academisation, evidence-based medicine, educational research and the recent Covid19 pandemic. Then it highlights how these drivers have changed the osteopathic educational providers (OEPs) and their faculties, what is taught and how it is taught. It has been a complex development with many important and mutually influencing factors, where cause and effect relationships are often difficult to establish. While these overall trends can be observed in many European countries, the development in individual jurisdictions may deviate from what is described.

期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Osteopathic Medicine is a peer-reviewed journal that provides for the publication of high quality research articles and review papers that are as broad as the many disciplines that influence and underpin the principles and practice of osteopathic medicine. Particular emphasis is given to basic science research, clinical epidemiology and health social science in relation to osteopathy and neuromusculoskeletal medicine.
The Editorial Board encourages submission of articles based on both quantitative and qualitative research designs. The Editorial Board also aims to provide a forum for discourse and debate on any aspect of osteopathy and neuromusculoskeletal medicine with the aim of critically evaluating existing practices in regard to the diagnosis, treatment and management of patients with neuromusculoskeletal disorders and somatic dysfunction. All manuscripts submitted to the IJOM are subject to a blinded review process. The categories currently available for publication include reports of original research, review papers, commentaries and articles related to clinical practice, including case reports. Further details can be found in the IJOM Instructions for Authors. Manuscripts are accepted for publication with the understanding that no substantial part has been, or will be published elsewhere.
