From coursework to community impact!

We’re proud to celebrate Dr. Kami Holst and Dr. Angela McCombs, two faculty members from St. Ambrose University’s OTD program, who will be presenting at the 44th Annual Closing the Gap Conference in Minneapolis this October.

Their presentation, “From Coursework to Community Impact: A Scalable OT Model for AT Fabrication & Interprofessional Design,” highlights an important part of what we do as educators: taking learning beyond the classroom and putting it into practice.

Through innovative coursework, our students develop skills that can translate into meaningful solutions for real people and real communities. We’re excited to see our faculty share this model with others in the profession and demonstrate how OT education can create impact far beyond the classroom.

We don’t just teach OT—we create opportunities to put OT into action. 💙
