difference between professional development and continuing competency in ot
Professional Development is a process by which individuals take control of their own learning and development, by engaging in a continuing process of reflection and action. The process can be both empowering and exciting and can stimulate people to achieve their aspirations and move towards their dreams.
All continuing competence courses and activities must relate to roles and responsibilities in occupational therapy and must enhance the therapistâs continuing competence. Qualified activities are set out in Rules .0803(a) and .0805 and contain many opportunities for completing continuing competence requirements.
