The last two days were absolutely packed with valuable resources, tips, templates and strategies! I gained a lot of clarity, confidence and ideas to walk forward as a new graduate Occupational Therapist. The workshop is essential for those interested in saving time on report writing, streamlining equipment selection and getting a grasp on advocating for clients with the help of legislation. Such a practical approach too!

The Community Fundamentals course is something I wish I did straight from university and prior to actually starting my role in community. There were so many tips and tricks that would have made the last few months a lot easier to handle and make the transition from student to OT a smoother process. Karen and Cheryl provided a wealth of knowledge in the role of a community OT and it was a great course! Would recommend to any new graduates or those transitioning to a community role.
