“Globally connect with OTs who
have shared passions”
“Students, practitioners and
academics come together, to
learn from each other, to improve
practice and to promote the
profession.”
“Get the opportunity to connect
with leaders who are willing to
share their knowledge.”
“Shared experience brings
people together.”
“Keeping in touch with the OT
community on a broader scale,
prevents my mind narrowing to just my
area of practice.”
“Understanding OT in its broadest
sense helps me be clear about
articulating what OT is.”
“Participation often stimulates ideas.”
