Apply for fundingThe first aim in our operational framework is to develop the practice of occupational therapy, this can be achieved through the development of occupational therapists and occupational therapy teams. Indeed, there are times when developing your own ideas for a CPD event may be more helpful as the learning can be tailored to your needs or the needs of your team or service.
Funds can be requested to ‘buy in’ a presenter, trainer or coach as we recognise that group learning can often be more cost-effective, time-efficient and context-focussed if it takes place at your site. Alternatively, you may want to visit other leading services in the UK to learn from them. To learn from international centres of excellence, consider our International Scholarship award.
Arguably, the ‘design your own learning’ is our most exciting funding opportunity as you can make it just what you need!
