Professional Formation VI

Catalog description

This course supports OTD students in refining their professional identity as occupational therapists as they complete their doctoral education and capstone experience. Students engage in advanced reflection and self-assessment as they finalize and integrate their Professional Development Plan. Through exploration of core institutional values, they examine how these principles inform ethical practice, professional behavior, and leadership development. The course provides structured opportunities to evaluate how advanced practice, scholarship, and the doctoral capstone have shaped their growth and to articulate their readiness to enter the profession as emerging leaders and practitioners.
