OT learner support
Being a learner can be tough! Not only are you taking in new ideas and building your network but there are also finances, finding placements and considering your direction of travel.
Take the time to explore our website and look out for new resources and opportunities.

AHP principles of practice-based learning
Since their inception, the AHP Principles of practice-based learning have acted as both a catalyst and framework for conversations across practice and education as well as amongst many other professions that we work closely with.
It is these conversations that have led to the launch of this updated version co-badged by 10 professional bodies, led by us and the CSP.
The AHP principles of practice-based learning are designed to be used by everyone involved in practice-based learning. This includes students and apprentices.
