Engaging in and with research is every occupational therapist’s business, from actively using existing research evidence to inform practice, through to participating in the development of the evidence base. The session will explore CPD activities, resources and opportunities that can assist occupational therapists to develop their confidence and capability across this research engagement spectrum from consumer to producer. 

This will include information about opportunities to become a RCOT research champion to support the development of a research community for networking, mentoring, information sharing, and further development of research capacity and capability within the occupational therapy profession across the UK.
