Each Occupational Therapy program is designed to prepare students for work as clinicians in a variety of settings. Students can utilize their training as a basis for advanced work and study in specialized clinical work, research in specific problems, teaching in clinical and academic settings or administrative and supervisory duties. The examination is offered biannually in March and September. Students are also eligible to take any required state licensure examinations. Accreditation standards are national and mandate successful completion of a minimum of six months of fieldwork experience in assigned, predetermined clinical sites.
Training takes place under the direction of qualified clinical supervisors.
