Mount Mary University is a women’s college that offers courses online for the convenience and flexibility of today’s non-traditional student. The post-professional occupational therapy doctorate is offered online to allow established professionals keep their demanding schedule while pursuing a higher degree in order to enhance or advance their career. The program is designed to prepare graduates to meet all requirements for American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) Board Certification for specialty areas. Leveraging a student’s current work environment in coordination with curriculum-focused critical review of trade publications, current trends and traditional professional literature, Mount Mary University seeks to provide graduates with all the tools necessary to achieve board certification. The program is asynchronous, yet interaction among student, faculty and peers is an important part of the education. A robust FAQ page on the school’s webpage provides good information.
