Bill > AB2773

This bill makes several changes to the laws governing the California Board of Occupational Therapy, including extending the board's existence until January 1, 2031, and requiring it to meet at least three times annually, with at least one meeting in northern California and one in southern California each year. It also updates requirements for occupational therapy education, mandating that programs and supervised fieldwork experiences be accredited by the American Occupational Therapy Association’s Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE), and adds a requirement for a supervised entry-level doctoral capstone experience for those pursuing an occupational therapy doctorate. The bill also sets a fee limit of $125 for limited permits and establishes fees for pocket cards, duplicate certificates, and letters of good standing, while requiring applicants and licensees to provide and update their email addresses with the board, which will be considered confidential.
