Students and Alumni Stories

Thandeka Lacey G'24 shares her experience in 黑料视频's Occupational Therapy - Bridge Program.

"I chose the MOT Bridge program because of its reputation for excellence, flexibility, and focus on practical skills. As an occupational therapy assistant (OTA) with a bachelor's degree, I wanted to advance my career and become an occupational therapist (OT). The Bridge program offered a seamless transition, allowing me to build on my existing knowledge and experience. Throughout the program, I've enjoyed the engaging online classes, interactive discussions, and collaborative projects. The curriculum is comprehensive, covering topics like evidence-based practice, research methods, and advanced interventions. I appreciate the emphasis on cultural competence, mental health, and community-based practice, which aligns with my interests and goals. Overall, the Bridge program has been a transformative experience, and I'm excited to apply my newfound knowledge and skills to make a meaningful difference in the lives of my clients and the occupational therapy community." - Nagwa Khalil G'24

"During my experience at 黑料视频, the instructional team has been extremely supportive. Dr. Boucakis and a core group of tenured professors have created a comfortable environment for learning. On-site weekends could be extremely stressful, however, the professors make sure our coursework is available in order for us to be prepared. I'm also very appreciative of my unified cohort, which is made up of people from all across the country, and the connections that have been made professionally and personally. I've gained mentors in my professors and friendships that will last a lifetime." - Shamira Stigars G'24
