The National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT) Ambassador program has three aims:

1. Strengthen the relationship between NBCOT and its stakeholders (e.g., licensing boards, practitioners, educators)
2. Increase the presence of NBCOT at the state level for information exchange
3. Enhance stakeholder access to NBCOT certification information and services.

If you are an educator, practitioner, or OT student and have questions related to certification, professional development, or exam preparation, don't hesitate to reach out to your Oregon Ambassador. If you are an aspiring OT student and or considering OT as a career, we would love to tell you all the exciting things our profession is doing. Check out Why Choose OT to learn more!
