Abstract

Date Presented 04/05/19

OTA education teaches theory and application skills to encourage clinical reasoning in entry-level practitioners for dynamic and complex environments across life spans to promote meaningful lives. Through survey methodology, researchers used open- and close-ended questions to identify the frequency of instructional methods and if a relationship with the National Board of Certification of OT (NBCOT) pass rates could be identified.
