Durham Tech's Occupational Therapy Assistant program is accredited by the Accreditation Council for
Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE). Graduates of ACOTE-accredited programs are eligible to sit
for the national certification exam through the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy
(NBCOT). Once that exam is passed they are “certified” and can apply for a license in any state within
the USA. Licensure is regulated by state (different laws, practice acts, continuing education
requirements and fees) but they can become licensed anywhere they apply. For North Carolina,
applications for licensure are handled through the North Carolina Board of Occupational Therapy.
