About this Event
In response to the rapidly changing circumstances associated with COVID-19, the Department of Occupational Therapy has made the decision to move the in-person 3rd Annual Pitt OT Colloquium to a virtual experience. The Virtual Pitt OT Colloquium will open with a welcome address from Professor and Chair, Elizabeth Skidmore, PhD, OTR/L, FAOTA, FACRM and recognition of the Pitt OT Award of Appreciation and Award of Excellence in Clinical/Community Education recipients. Dr. Skidmore will then present a keynote presentation "Occupation and Participation: Essential Elements of Health and Well-Being." The keynote presentation will be followed by a poster session to feature capstone projects from the first cohort of Doctor of Occupational Therapy (OTD) graduates.
This event is open to OT students, alumni, fieldwork supervisors, educators, practitioners, community partners, and friends of Pitt OT.
OT practitioners can earn a maximum of 2.5 continuing education/professional development contact hours for attending the welcome address, keynote presentation and length of the poster sessions.
