“Ergonomics for Occupational Therapy Practitioners” (EOTP) is an on-demand, on-line course for occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs), as well as other therapy professionals. As many OTPs had limited exposure to ergonomics in their academic education (Fisher, 2019), EOTP is intended to equip them for ergonomic practice. This 10-module on-line course provides ergonomic principles and application for a variety of environments, leveraging adult learning theory and evidence-based curriculum design. The program’s ultimate goal is to increase the number of OTPs working in the area of ergonomics by increasing their knowledge of and confidence in this distinct practice area.
