3 World Federation of Occupational Therapists (WFOT) approved of the OT curriculum of SAMP establishment of the Occupational Therapy Association of the Philippines (OTAP) OTAP was granted Associate Member status by WFOT Republic Act 5680 known as the Act of creating the Board of Examination for PT and OT was passed (aka PT-OT Law) 3
4 American Occupational Therapy Certification Board (AOTCB) examination became available for OTs residing in the Philippines a move to amend the OT-PT law (BP5680) was started by OTAP 14 schools are offering B.S. Occupational Therapy degree Approx. 70 graduates per year Average of 41% passing rate in licensure examinations Approx. 500 Filipino OTs 80% in major cities 80% in major cities 4
5 Occupational Therapy Association of the Philippines (OTAP) General mission: 1. to foster strong fellowship and unity among its members 2. to enforce the observance of the OT Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics 3. to keep abreast of new developments in the profession, and to facilitate the exchange and dissemination of knowledge among occupational therapy professionals Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) responsible for the administration, implementation and enforcement of regulatory policies on the regulation and licensing of various professions and occupations under its jurisdiction 5

13 major problems of OT practice in the Philippines is the constant migration of Filipino OTs to other countries According to the Department of Health, an average of 40 Filipino OTs migrate to work in other countries per year 13
14 Most Filipino people still does not know the role and importance of OT Term therapist connotes doing massages love for research is lacking among Filipino OTs Researches are mostly done by OTs in the academe/ education field, with limited participation of clinicians Limited peer-reviewed publications Access to databases are limited (due to lack of fund) 14
15 No masteral or PhD programs directly related to OT Lack of certification courses for specific area of specializations These issues now poses a challenge to the OT professionals in the Philippines to overcome these problems and emerge as a truly competent and globally- competitive OT. 15
