The Occupational Therapy Doctorate - Post Professional Program (OTD-PP) is designed for practicing registered occupational therapists who have obtained a master’s degree and want to advance in leadership and develop as evidence-based scholars. The focus of this interdisciplinary clinical doctoral program is to advance students with knowledge in occupational science, evidence-based practice, leadership, and the application of teaching and learning strategies.  The program is offered entirely online through asynchronous interaction with instructors and a cohort of students. Program requirements include a master’s degree in occupational therapy, current NBCOT certification, and at least 6 months of occupational therapy practice in the United States.
