Competence Enhancement
Within a program of Continuing Competence, Competence Enhancement activities are intended to result in ongoing improvement in current skills and knowledge, especially those related to understanding and complying with legal, ethical and regulatory requirements. A program of regular update and enhancement assists the OT to integrate and apply their knowledge, skills, judgements and interpersonal attributes in order to practice safely and ethically in a designated role and setting.
Examples of Competence Enhancement are completion of formal CCP requirements (e.g. Self -assessment, Professional Development Plan, Prescribed Regulatory Education). Other examples are attendance and participation in presentations, courses or workshops as well as use of learning materials produced or recommended by their regulatory organization.
