Quality Assurance Program
The Quality Assurance (QA) Program is an important aspect of the College's mandate. All Colleges under the Regulated Health Professions Act, 1991 must:
- develop, establish and maintain programs and standards of practice to assure the quality of practice of the profession; and
- develop, establish and maintain standards of knowledge and skill and programs to promote continuing evaluation, competence and improvement among the members.
The QA Program, for all Colleges must include:
- continuing education or professional development designed to:
- promote continuing competency and continuing quality improvement among the members
- address changes in practice environment; and
- incorporate standards of practice, advances in technology, changes made to entry to practice competencies and other relevant issues in the discretion of the Council;
- self, peer and practice assessment;
- a mechanism for the College to monitor registrants' participation in, and compliance with, the quality programs.
The goal of the Quality Assurance Program is to protect the public by working in partnership with Occupational Therapists in Ontario to support and provide them with tools to demonstrate their ongoing competence.
