Each year, after completing their final placements, the graduating cohort of MScOT students are each encouraged to nominate one of their clinical educators who has made an extra-ordinary contribution to their fieldwork experience.

Our congratulations and immense thanks to Petrina Calder for her ongoing investment in our OT students and for so effectively supporting fieldwork placements in a potentially intimidating practice setting!
