With the increase in our student numbers (we now have 91 first year and 72 second year students), placement offers from our clinical community are needed more than ever.

We currently have about 50% of the placements we need. If you are able, please consider offering a placement and supporting the important fieldwork component of OT education.

A grid showing the number of placements for each level. Just under 50% for Level 1, about 60% for level 3A and 50% for level 3B.

Our upcoming 2024 placement dates are:

  • MOT 1 (Level 1): January 2–February 2, 2024
  • MOT 2 (Level 3A): February 5–March 15, 2024
  • MOT 2 (Level 3B): March 25–May 10, 2024

Please submit your placement offers for Level 1 and 3A by October 2, 2023.
(We will be accepting 3B placement offers until November.)

Placement offers can be submitted via our Offer a Placement page. Please note that all placement offers from Health Authorities in BC should be submitted via HSPnet.
