Are you interested in becoming a Fieldwork Educator? This section of the website has helpful information about registering as a fieldwork site, the benefits of becoming a Fieldwork Educator, and how to make your experience a positive one.

As fieldwork educators, you facilitate the learning of students by creating a climate to promote the development of knowledge, skills, behaviours, and attitudes relevant to occupational therapy. As a fieldwork educator, your role will involve:

1. Integrating a student program into the fieldwork setting,
2. Modelling professional practice behaviours,
3. Guiding student practice within the setting, and
4. Providing formal and informal feedback and evaluation on performance to the student and appropriate university personnel.
