You can view and review them anytime within a 15-week semester.

Course assignments can be completed any time prior to the deadline and an active discussion forum promotes peer review, professional growth, networking and collaboration to achieve your professional goals.

Elevating the Profession

As the saying goes, “a rising tide lifts all boats.” This tOTD program provides a critical career advancement pathway for therapists trained at ACOTE accredited schools as well as foreign universities.

 

Pathway to success
