  • Title: Continuing education requirements to maintain occupational therapy licensure.
    Author: Garrahy R, Thibodaux L, Hickman C, Caldwell D.
    Journal: Am J Occup Ther; 1992 Oct; 46(10):939-42. PubMed ID: 1463066.
    Abstract:
    Different states use a variety of regulatory mechanisms to monitor the quality of practice in occupational therapy. The requirement for mandatory continuing education has been adopted by fewer than half of American states, but there is reason to predict that this trend will increase. This study investigates the patterns linking licensure to continuing education and recommends actions to ensure uniformity and accountability.
