Upon earning your M.S. in Occupational Therapy, you must take the National Occupational Therapy Certification Exam offered by the NBCOT to become a practicing occupational therapist.

The National Board Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT) certification examination is offered to graduates via computer and is scheduled 鈥渙n-demand鈥 at various testing centers across the USA. It is the student's responsibility to apply for the exam in a timely manner and to notify the testing service if he/she does not receive information. The student is responsible for all fees and required documentation. Students are required to submit official college transcripts for application to the exam.
Felony convictions, professional licensure revocation and/or other convictions of negligence, malpractice, recklessness or willful or intentional misconduct may affect a candidate鈥檚 ability to sit for the NBCOT national certification exam. .
Some states allow practitioners to be employed prior to taking the examination. In this case all official documentation is co-signed by a registered occupational therapist for legal and reimbursement purposes.
Application for State Licensure
Occupational therapy practitioners must apply for licensure to practice in a given state. State Licensure Board鈥檚 vary in their requirements but most require certification examination results and professional references. It is the student's responsibility to investigate the specific requirements of the state. If reference letters must accompany licensure application, the student should discuss this with individual faculty members. Felony convictions, professional licensure revocation and/or other convictions of negligence, malpractice, recklessness or willful or intentional misconduct may affect a candidate鈥檚 ability to obtain state licensure. In some states a temporary license can be granted if the student is working pending the results of the certification examination.
