[EMAIL PROTECTED], OT Search is run by AOTF through AOTA. Yes, there is a fee as it takes resources to run the library, create and maintain the database.
NBCOT issues the credentials OTR and COTA. Credentials used to identify onself as an OT or OTA are a matter of state law, in addition to the credentials issued by NBCOT http://www.aota.org/members/area6/2006-ra/pres2-A17a.pdf Re: credentials for PT and SLP. You assert that these professions only use one set of initials to identify themselves. That is not the case. PT has LPT, PT, PT/L, DPT, MPT, MSPT, and so on. SLP has SLP, SLP-CCC and probably others. Through AOTA's model practice act, a motion going to the RA this year suggests that states use OT or OT/L in state law. Re: involvement in our profession on a leadership level. I encourage you to get involved. We need all of the help we can get from members. For more information about the 2006 RA meeting, including a number of reports from AOTA's leadership, please visit: http://www.aota.org/members/area6/links/link15.asp?PLACE=/members/area6/links/link15.asp Chuck >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/23/06 12:09 AM >>> Ok, I've been sitting on the sidelines for a bit, but now must speak up. Chuck, regarding a few of the "eight elements viewed as relevant to a shared vision" from the "Proposed Centennial Vision Statement" you detailed in Vol 15, Issue 8: "3. Membership equals professional responsibility" How about we start by unifying our professional competence governance (in reference to one of the "six barriers" identified in the proposal "4. Inconsistent competencies for education and practice") I pay dues to the AOTA, get access (albeit LIMITED - more about this later) to the "members only" section of the website. Then, to legally use the designation of OTR, which I initially earned after passing the certification exam (issued originally by the AOTA prior to its historic, and well-publicized battle with what's now the separate entity known as the NBCOT) I pay an extra $60.00 biennially. Come on. Professional responsibility indeed. What about the responsibility of the leadership to it's paying members? Then, from the "six barriers identified" we have: "3. Limited appeal of AOTA membership" Well, for starters refer to the above information. Can you tell me why any responsible consumer would be attracted to pay into such a chaotic and non-cohesive organization? We can't even agree amongst our own colleagues as to how to credential and identify our practitioners: we have OTR, LOT, OT/L, OTA/L, COTA, LOTA, LOTR. Are you kidding me? Professional identity indeed! Check out our colleagues on the other side of the isle, and chances are you'll find one designation: PT or SLP----period. It is a little surreal to read all of the "cheerleading" and well-meaning pseudo-positive statements from the leadership individuals posting to this list. I suggest we cease with all the political rhetoric and posturing and start by unifying our profession once again, present a TRUE united front, then build a plan to be a relevant player in the healthcare environment. I mean seriously, did everyone read the same posting from Chuck that I did? Is it me, or is it fraught with useless committee lingo? No offense intended to anyone, but can we please see some real results before imploring practitioners to "be responsible" by joining? And finally, my last rant: Under the "Four strategic directions emerged after a careful analysis of barriers and opportunities" section: "1. Building the capacity to fulfill the profession's potential and mission." One of the bullet points is "* Increasing research capacity and productivity" When I log in as a member on the AOTA website, and attempt to access the "OT Search" feature, I find that I must pay an additional $75/year (since I am a member, but would pay $200.00/year if I weren't) to fully use the research capabilities on the site. So, if I choose to use the designation of OTR, (for which I felt I initially "earned" the right to use) I pay $60.00 biennially to another entity to do so. If I elect to be an AOTA member, I pay $225.00 annually. If I want to access research capabilities in the comfort of my own home on the website for which I purchased a membership I pay an additional $75.00. Anyone? Perhaps I should consider involvement in our profession on a leadership level. It's not been an interest of mine for quite some time, but when I look from the sidelines at the state of our profession, and wonder almost daily if I will continue to be proud of my profession for the remainder of my career, it almost feels inevitable. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Send OTlist mailing list submissions to > OTlist@otnow.com > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, > visit > http://otnow.com/mailman/listinfo/otlist_otnow.com > or, via email, send a message with subject or body > 'help' to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > You can reach the person managing the list at > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it > is more specific > than "Re: Contents of OTlist digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
