Colleges and universities should not be responsible for level II fieldwork education.
The scheduling and managing of Level II fieldwork education which is required for the certification of the occupational therapy assistant and occupational therapist are time-consuming, financial burdens to the colleges and universities, the training facilities, and the student. A more efficient procedure with advantages for all parties concerned is suggested. Level II fieldwork education should be a postgraduate experience arranged outside of the jurisdiction of the degree-granting educational institution.
