They choose advanced studies in occupational therapy accordingly and add to their own competence and perspective on occupational therapy. Students are able to share what they have learnt about occupational therapy with others and influence others through rational and reasoned argumentation. They build new knowledge based on the competence that they have acquired. Students internalize the significance of continuous improvement as part of professional growth.
