Hi! I'm an Indian student studying occupational therapy. I'm in the 2nd year of my bachelor's degree. I was curious what it's like to study occupational therapy in other countries, including what you learn in the programme, what sort of activities you participate in, etc.
Although the majority of people in this country are unaware of what occupational therapy is, we do have a lot of clients here and get to practise with OTs in the outpatient setting. There are very few well-known institutions that offer this course, and the resources we have access to are extremely constrained.
I also wanted to know if joining AOTA is worthwhile. I've always been curious to learn more about and investigate this profession. I have always thought that occupational therapy is a fantastic career choice and I adore everything about it.
I would love to interact with OTs, OTAs, or students. Feel free to get in touch with me at creativemc23@gmail.com.
Thank You!
Hi everyone!
I'm a first semester OT student in Austria. In the last few months we learnt the basics of Anatomy, all these different OT models like CMOP-E or PEO, the history of Occupational therapy etc. We also started practicing COPM interviews.
As far as I can tell, there will be more specific classes in the following years of our education.
I would be very interested to get to know what the training program looks like in other countries!
Thanks a lot :)
