CPD Presenter EOI
The Occupational Therapy Australia (OTA) CPD program is an evidence-based, peer-reviewed program that covers a wide range of practice areas, clinical expertise and career development stages. Our CPD program offerings are reviewed by an independent panel of experts OTs, who assess the content to ensure it provides evidence-based practice that is relevant to the profession.
OTA's accessible and relevant professional education is delivered through webinars, workshops and online learning resources, assisting OTs to develop their skills, share knowledge and build connections.
We are now accepting Expressions of Interest (EOI) to present CPD as part of our 2024/2025 program and have outlined below the process of what information is needed to make an EOI for consideration by our Peer Advisory Panel. Initially, please send us some basic information about your CPD idea/offering. If it fits with our Program we will be in touch with the links to proceed. The CPD Presentation Proposal form is located at the bottom of this page.
