We believe in the value of state associations

Aspire OT knows the value that each state association brings not only to the profession of occupational therapy, but also to OT practitioners across the country. We created the Aspire OT State Association Partnership Program to support these associations and their missions. Through the partnership, the state association can offer occupational therapy continuing education courses with less demand on their own resources. Aspire OT can also assist the association in finding a broader audience for each continuing education course leading to potential revenue for the state association.
