Elevate your practice and get the information you need to be the best OT or OTA that you can be. Whether you’re looking to master a new set of skills or gain a deeper understanding of a topic of interest, AOTA’s Micro Credentials will give you the knowledge and skills you need to better serve your clients, and will set you on your path to earning an AOTA professional certificate.
What is a micro credential?
A micro credential is issued upon completion of a set of required thematically connected courses and three essentials courses that are specifically chosen for the micro credential that you are earning. The micro credential provides acknowledgement of your growing knowledge base and can either be completed as a step to the School-Based Practice professional certificate or completed for its own merits without advancement to a certificate—it is considered a stand-alone designation.
