Welcome!

Welcome from the AESIS Chairperson

The Academic Education Special Interest Section (AESIS) includes all who are interested in OT education, including educators, fieldwork educators, academic fieldwork coordinators, doctoral capstone coordinators, admissions persons, and students. In the next 3 years, I look forward to working with a committee that is representative of all OT education and continuing the mentoring programs, and supporting the existing Communities of Practice. Please explore what all the AESIS has to offer in the following pages!
