Guest speaker will be Prof. Birgitta Gunnarsson, occupational therapist and associate professor at the University of Gothenburg, who will illustrate a virtuous example in continuing education.

Description

Developments in the health and social sciences mean that rehabilitation professionals must be able to act and interact in increasingly specialized ways to effectively meet the demands posed by clinical practice.

Consolidating excellence in Ergotherapy is a goal that DEASS Continuing Education, the Professional Association and all active occupational therapists in the area pursue.

Consolidating excellence in Ergotherapy also means making training accessible through an educational pathway that seeks to combine quality with sustainability.With this in mind, DEASS is pleased to invite interested people to an evening presentation of training proposals in Ergotherapy for the 2024/25 academic year.

A valuable opportunity for dialogue and discussion with colleagues from Italian-speaking Switzerland and beyond to consolidate together excellence in Ergotherapy.

To whom it is addressed

Occupational therapist(s) and occupational therapist(s) and all health professions in the various care teams.
