This 2 year accelerated course will prepare you for a career as an occupational therapist. Our use of problem-based learning will support you to become an autonomous learner, global in your outlook, socially responsible, and self-aware. Upon completion, you can seek professional registration. The Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and the Royal College of Occupational Therapists (RCOT) accredit this course.
As part of the course, you will:
- Undertake at least 1000 hours of varied clinical practice. These could include health, social care, education, or third-sector placements. A registered occupational therapist will supervise all clinical practice.
- Consider the complex relationships between occupation, health, and well-being. You will learn to critique the application of occupational therapy practice models and occupational science.
- Develop the ability to carry out occupational therapy assessments and interventions. In doing so, you will enable people with a range of difficulties to engage in their everyday lives fully.
