ASK ME ANYTHING ABOUT...

COLLABORATIVE APPROACHES TO AAC AS AN OT

Well, this one is going to be more of an "Ask US Anything" session, as I will be joined by special guests Kelvin Kong and Jessica Dickson from Superyou Tech.

We'll be answering questions like:

- What should my role be in an AAC assessment?

- I know my client needs an AAC device soon, what features should I be considering when prescribing a new wheelchair?
- What activities can I incorporate into my session to build a client’s access skills?

Or do you have a different question? Register for the session and ask us! The session will be recorded if you can't come live.

When you sign-up you will be added to the Your OT Tutor mailing list, but I won't spam you and you can unsubscribe anytime.

While we're OTs focusing on the OT role in AAC, speech pathologists are welcome!

We'd love to hear your insights too.

Come along to the FREE "Ask Me Anything" Zoom session to ask any questions you have about using AAC as an OT. My special guests Kelvin Kong and Jessica Dickson will be there to share their expertise!

TESTIMONIALS

Clare, with this course you've really set the industry standard. I've completed just about every course on FCA for OT's out there and this is by far the most in-depth, presented in such a systematic and clear way - the effort you've put into making this course is abundantly clear, and honestly I'm so grateful that you've created this to kindly share with your professional network. This course gets a solid 5/5 for me - thank you so so much! :)

Anonymous Occupational Therapist

Clare's dedication to facilitating growth in skills and knowledge is unparalleled, reflected in her mission to 'help occupational therapists to LEARN, GROW, and EXCEL.' Her expertise in how to best support OT students during placements in almost unparalleled in Australia. Equally impressive is her generosity with her time, connecting people to resources and individuals that can further their careers. Clare is indeed a vital asset to our profession.

Dave J - Director and Occupational Therapist

I commend Clare for her ability to effectively communicate complex concepts and create an engaging learning environment. Her passion for empowering clinicians and ensuring high-quality assessments that align with the core principles of the NDIS is truly commendable....I have found Clare to be approachable and responsive, always willing to provide answers and support when needed. Overall, Clare is an invaluable asset to any educational program or training initiative.

Kumar E - Principal Occupational Therapist

As a busy practice owner, I’ve absolutely loved having this resource available for my new grads . Even though I’ve got plenty of my own guides and sample FCA reports to share with them , what I lack is time to sit down and go through these step by step to make sure they truly understand the process. The 8 hours worth of online learning has been a massive investment for me and a valuable resource for my team. Thank you Clare Batkin!

Angie C - Director and Occupational Therapist

Clare has been an invaluable resource for me as a new graduate OT - I regularly check her business page: Your OT Tutor and have recommended my colleagues do the same for easy to digest updates and tips! Clare has gone out of her way to assist me with my CPD portfolio and provided me with such a helpful template to use (a life saver!). Clare is extremely helpful, approachable, and very responsive despite her busy schedule.

Brodie S - New Graduate OT

Clare has done a fabulous job with spearheading 'Your OT Tutor', a journal club that has really helped me stay up to date with the current evidence on topics directly relevant to my practice. Her approach is comprehensive yet practical, given how time-poor clinicians often are, and I am very much looking forward to our 2023 sessions. I highly recommend Clare to other OTs - those starting out as well as others who are more established in the profession - she is an absolute asset to both.
