 | York St John OT Society @YSJOTSOC RT @DerbyOTsociety: It is our online #OTalk session tonight! 'CPD Opportunities for students' 8:00pm. We can't wait to chat with everyone! @OTalk_ @DerbyUnion @derbyunistudent @DerbyUniVol @DerbyOT @DerbyUni https://t.co/zB45KSKNxK |
 | D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety Hi everyone! We are @LaurenemilyOT @JadeElizabethOT and @EmRodriguesOT committee of the Derby OT Society! We are looking forward to talking all things CPD with you tonight! #OTalk |
 | Lauren Scarisbrick π @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety @JadeElizabethOT We are really excited to be hosting and seeing your responses! #OTalk |
 | Cassandra @Cass_OT__ Ready to join! #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety Question 1! What CPD events have you been able to access whilst being a student, has this been internal or external to your curriculum? #OTalk |
 | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT #otalk hello folks! |
 | Student Platform OT @SPOTeurope @DerbyOTsociety @LaurenemilyOT @JadeElizabethOT We are here!! #OTalk |
 | Anya de Iongh @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety @LaurenemilyOT @JadeElizabethOT Hello! π I'm an OT student at @OT_UEA, looking forward to the #OTalk this evening! Thank for you for hosting on such a useful topic! |
| Lauren Scarisbrick π @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk I feel have been able to access lots of different CPD events throughout my time as a student. Our curriculum has had CPD opportinites such as projects with international students and Interprofessional learning events. |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @DerbyOTsociety For me, primarily will be conferences- we have twice a year from US state associations and annually with AOTA. #otalk |
| Lauren Scarisbrick π @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk There has also been a broad variety of external CPD events such as ones from the society, the OT show and conferences. Also twitter has provided online CPD events or campaigns for us to be involved with as students. |
 | Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @DerbyOTsociety @LaurenemilyOT @JadeElizabethOT ππ hi I'm an OT student at York St John :) looking forward to tonight's #OTalk |
 | Deb Duck @debbieduckie @BillWongOT I think itβs missing! I canβt find them #otalk |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ #OTalk Many of my CPD activities are regarding internationalisation which are usually external since it is an extra opportunity to join international events. |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety @BillWongOT Amazing - what do you think you gain from attending conferences? #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety RT @MegB95: #OTalk tonight is being hosted by a brilliant bunch of ladies and about CPD development opportunities. Definitely worth joining in with π |
 | πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety A major CPD even is @OTalk_ itself which I attend every week. I also attend @shout_team talks I was hoping to attend more conferences over the summer but now theyβre cancelled for obvious reasons. #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety RT @Ruth_Hawley: Great #OTalk to participate in if you can. Hope it goes well guys! |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ #OTalk such as conferences, mobility weeks and offcourse @SPOTeurope |
 | β―οΈ RΝ‘ΝaΝ‘ΝcΝ‘ΝhΝ‘ΝeΝ‘ΝlΝ‘Ν β―οΈοΈ @RachelOTstudent @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk it has been a mix between the two, have found a lot of opportunities through Twitter & RCOT regional groups - went to see @RebeccaTwinley in York, attended a @Bobath_Centre seminar at RDH and there have been plenty at uni |
 | Jade Nixon @JadeElizabethOT @DerbyOTsociety @LaurenemilyOT Hi everyone! Really excited to discuss CPD opportunities on tonight's #OTalk! |
 | Ellie Dixon @EllieDixon_OT @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team I agree! I've found it difficult to know what to access as part of my CPD but the #OTalk discussions and the SHOUT talks have been really useful! |
| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety Our @UEAOTSoc ran a talk before Covid19, but since then, I've been loving the @SPOTeurope weekly series! And of course #OTalk most weeks... we've had ongoing CPD within our course too, from @JonLarner et al! |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety @Cass_OT__ Sounds great! What type of international activities have you been involved in - and how do you think it has impacted you differently to events closer to home? We would love to hear about your experiences! #OTalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @DerbyOTsociety So many! With uni we've had various workshops, and with the @YSJOTSOC we've visit services in York, and had a guest speaker. I also went to the RCOT NYR roadshow, and the RCOT 2019 conference.. all amazing opportunities #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety @GeorgiaVineOT @OTalk_ @shout_team Sounds great - we love to attend @shout_team talks if we can! #OTalk |
| Lauren Scarisbrick π @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety DOTS has provided different CPD opportinites. Our three aims Inform, Impact, Inspire allow us to provide students and professionals with CPD events. Inform allows educational development, Impact is our charity fundraising and Inspire allows for networking to take place! #OTalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @EllieDixon_OT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team Yeah itβs just about exploring really I find looking for events on Twitter is the best way and I always look at anything happening near my in OT News. But itβs just having the confidence to do it #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety We wonder if there is a place for information around what to access and where as a part of CPD for students e.g. a guideline #OTalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team I also go to events with @CPTeensUK #OTalk |
 | Meg @MegB95 I have been to an incredible amount of CPD events thanks to @DerbyOTsociety (My favourites being @Aerobility with @KaptainKevman and Community Mental health with @RamsellEleanor). I was also able to attend a conference on Cerebal palsy and a lecture with @BNightsCRPS #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety @anyadei @UEAOTSoc @SPOTeurope @JonLarner Sounds great - what sort of things to you cover for CPD within your course? #OTalk |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk In my opinion international experience is obligated as an OT since our clients are diverse. By attending international events you learn more about other perspectives in stead of origin perspectives. I must emphasise that international experience can also be found at home! |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety This just shows how many opportunities there are within universities and beyond! It is great :D #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @DerbyOTsociety I particularly like the AOTA/NBCOT student conclave. Being a conference exclusively for students nationally in the USA was a huge benefit... and of course, I still keep in touch with some of the attendees today. #otalk |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety @UEAOTSoc @SPOTeurope @JonLarner Ah thatβs great to hear Anya! #OTalk #Spotties |
| Ellie Dixon @EllieDixon_OT @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team I'll try looking on Twitter! I agree with you about OT news, that's been a really great resource for me too! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Cass_OT__: @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk In my opinion international experience is obligated as an OT since our clients are diverse. By attending international events you learn more about other perspectives in stead of origin perspectives. I must emphasise that international experience can also be found at home! |
| Student Platform OT @SPOTeurope We attend @enOThe1 each year and this such an amazing event for CPD in many ways! And also can open so many doors for your future career and CPD #OTalk |
 | Ellie Bamber @EllietheOT @Cass_OT__ @DerbyOTsociety I took a Canadian student though the Erasmus program. Very interesting experience to learn and reflect upon the differences #OTalk |
 | Katie Moffat @Katie_Moffat @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team Agree with this too! I've found #OTalk so easy to engage with every week! |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Cass_OT__ @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety @UEAOTSoc @SPOTeurope @JonLarner haha... I know the USA equivalent will be ASD'ers. (ASD in this context will be Assembly of Student Delegates in AOTA). #otalk |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ @EllieDixon_OT @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team Are you allowed to note #OTalk as an CPD activity? |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety Agreed! Social media is a great way to access CPD and also find out about it! #OTalk |
| Ellie Dixon @EllieDixon_OT @DerbyOTsociety It would be really useful to have a resource like that, although I did find the AOTA guidelines to be useful. #OTalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @Katie_Moffat @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team I've loved getting involved with #OTalk - they vary so much and have a great range of experience from so many different OTs who join! Their knowledge is invaluable and I've thoroughly enjoyed getting to know some of them :) |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @Cass_OT__ @EllieDixon_OT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team Yes you can download the reflection form on their website #OTalk |
| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety @UEAOTSoc @SPOTeurope @JonLarner We get really useful blogs from the teaching team on different prompts or points for reflection, to help build our confidence with creating our CPD portfolio, which can feel daunting at first, but starting to get into the swing of it! #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety Great perspective and great point! Internationalisation doesn't always mean travelling! Thanks Cass #OTalk |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety My university @HvA_Ergo also provides CPD activities for students, they are willing to think along #OTalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT RT @DerbyOTsociety: Agreed! Social media is a great way to access CPD and also find out about it! #OTalk |
| Jade Nixon @JadeElizabethOT @DerbyOTsociety DOTS was founded to provide further experiential opportunities by providing educational workshops/seminars (inform), building networks through family socials (inspire), and to support local and global communities through fundraising and awareness (impact) π #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @DerbyOTsociety If I were a student today, I will also add TEDCircles to the list. It's an amazing opportunity to meet strangers across the globe. It's basically a live media club with TED or TEDx talk. #otalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety Thanks guys for the amazing responses for Qu1! It is great to see conversations merging but we are also going to add Qu2 in just a second! #OTalk |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ @EllietheOT @DerbyOTsociety Oh thatβs great! Was it through your uni? #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @JadeElizabethOT: @DerbyOTsociety DOTS was founded to provide further experiential opportunities by providing educational workshops/seminars (inform), building networks through family socials (inspire), and to support local and global communities through fundraising and awareness (impact) π #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Cass_OT__: @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety My university @HvA_Ergo also provides CPD activities for students, they are willing to think along #OTalk |
| Jade Nixon @JadeElizabethOT @DerbyOTsociety RCOT has short courses and articles to enhance specialist knowledge on areas of practice. For example, on models or approaches #OTalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @EllieDixon_OT @DerbyOTsociety Would you have a link to that at all, Ellie? Sounds interesting :) #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety Qu 2: How easy do you think it is to access CPD as a student alongside your studies? #OTalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @Laura_Does @Katie_Moffat @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team Me too! I always try and reflect on them because itβs just so valuable #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Cass_OT__ @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety @HvA_Ergo I should do an inservice to them about TEDCircles. #otalk |
| Lauren Scarisbrick π @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk I personally have found it easy to manage attendance of CPD events through managing my time and ensuring I put my studies first. Also, through attendance of CPD events this has helped me to develop my knowledge for my assignments. |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ @GeorgiaVineOT @EllieDixon_OT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team Ah woah thatβs pretty awesome! I donβt believe we can use this for CPD activities #OTalk seeing there is already a difference! |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety @UEAOTSoc @SPOTeurope @JonLarner That sounds like a great resource #OTalk |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ RT @DerbyOTsociety: Great perspective and great point! Internationalisation doesn't always mean travelling! Thanks Cass #OTalk |
| Jade Nixon @JadeElizabethOT @DerbyOTsociety It can be a balance. You have to manage your studies alongside life, with some people balancing more than others (work, family, etc). But as OTs, it is part of the process learning to occupationally balance, fitting CPD learning into that! #OTalk |
| Ellie Bamber @EllietheOT @Cass_OT__ @DerbyOTsociety I was her educator and she came as he placement. #OTalk |
| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety @UEAOTSoc @SPOTeurope @JonLarner I also went to a @RYASailability conference - which was great. It wasn't an OT event, but helped me learn about so many adaptive technologies and seeing how others see what we call enabling occupations! #OTalk |
| Ellie Dixon @EllieDixon_OT @Laura_Does @DerbyOTsociety Yes I'm sure I do! I'll have a look and sent it over to you! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @LaurenemilyOT: @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk I personally have found it easy to manage attendance of CPD events through managing my time and ensuring I put my studies first. Also, through attendance of CPD events this has helped me to develop my knowledge for my assignments. |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety and this is a common thing when you are on the other side being qualified too. Many are focusing on their careers first before thinking about getting involved in the profession later. #otalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @EllieDixon_OT @DerbyOTsociety Thank you π #OTalk |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ @EllietheOT @DerbyOTsociety Ah I see, anyway really cool! #OTalk |
| Deb Duck @debbieduckie @DerbyOTsociety It fitted in quite well for me. #otalk. Recognising those opportunities was the trick. I found attending @shout_team impossible tho, I have a large family and was working as well as studying. #otalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @GeorgiaVineOT @Katie_Moffat @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team I must be honest I got out of the habit of reflecting on them, but you're right! And I must get back to doing that (tonight) π #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @DerbyOTsociety I will also say- my exposure to conferences early on was what made me a conference junkie now. I feel sad that I won't attend anything live any time soon! #otalk |
| Lauren Scarisbrick π @LaurenemilyOT @BillWongOT @DerbyOTsociety Definitely! I aim to keep my passion going for CPD throughout my career but understand the difficulties of getting the right balance #OTalk |
| Katie Moffat @Katie_Moffat @DerbyOTsociety My lecturers have kept us up to date with external CPD opportunities, lots of additional training for practice, learning opportunities to apply in uni, tips for reflection and journal clubs! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @debbieduckie: @DerbyOTsociety It fitted in quite well for me. #otalk. Recognising those opportunities was the trick. I found attending @shout_team impossible tho, I have a large family and was working as well as studying. #otalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety It depends like @OTalk_ is so easy to fit in. But if itβs like a road show it can be hard if itβs not near. I really wanted to go to @NaidexShow last year but couldnβt because I was on placement. Iβm hoping to go next time but obviously my studies come first. #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety Good tip! Thanks Bill! #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ @DerbyOTsociety Especially as a fresh OT it is student, I remember freaking out whether Iβd retrieve enough points for the CPD. When you are more familiar with it, I believe it is more easier to access and find activities and do this beside the studies #OTalk |
| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety Hard sometimes as feels like I'm 'developing professionally' just by doing the course itself (although I know CPD is more than that), but when I do extra-curricular CPD, it does help widen my thinking! I can imagine it probably feels like that for years once qualified too! #OTalk |
| Katie Moffat @Katie_Moffat @Laura_Does @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team I have a long list of 'to do' reflections! Now that I'm finished exams I'm looking forw as rd to working through them! #OTalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @NaidexShow Not just this having a physical disability makes it harder as I canβt just hop on the train #OTalk |
| Jade Nixon @JadeElizabethOT @DerbyOTsociety Personally, I found it challenging at times. I aimed to put academia first, but also balanced family time, seeing friends, working for the SU, and general life! DOTS was a great asset, because the variety and regualarity meant I could attend ss much as I wanted #OTalk |
 | #OTalk @OTalk_ @Cass_OT__ @EllieDixon_OT @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @shout_team Definitely! It's most certainly a CPD activity #Otalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @DerbyOTsociety The accessibiloty of the events/opportunities hasn't been a problem for me, though I can understand why it would be for some. With the YSJ OT Society, we try and think about how to make our educational events accessible for everyone #OTalk |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ Thatβs a great idea! #OTalk |
 | Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 RT @GeorgiaVineOT: @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @NaidexShow Not just this having a physical disability makes it harder as I canβt just hop on the train #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @debbieduckie @DerbyOTsociety @shout_team The student days are good times in practicing digging deep to participate in OT activities we SHOULD participate. I know I am an example of that now- by still getting involved in the TED community. Getting involved in that realm is extremely intense! #otalk |
| Student Platform OT @SPOTeurope Thanks for the shoutout Anya! π€©π #Otalk |
| β―οΈ RΝ‘ΝaΝ‘ΝcΝ‘ΝhΝ‘ΝeΝ‘ΝlΝ‘Ν β―οΈοΈ @RachelOTstudent @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk like everything it is a balance, some I just cannot attend due to cost or childcare issues, others I've taken my daughter with me (thanks @DerbyOTsociety). |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 RT @DerbyOTsociety: Qu 2: How easy do you think it is to access CPD as a student alongside your studies? #OTalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @Katie_Moffat @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team That's true, the transcripts are always there! And I have done a couple of reflections a few weeks later, before :) #OTalk |
| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @NaidexShow I agree about the ease of online things (and so grateful for it at times like this!). The loveliness of meeting people face to face at event can be so energising and exhausting in equal measure! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Cass_OT__ I have participated in 5 and hosted 1 already. So, I know the inside and out about this pretty much... this is one of the times that OT is on time with a relatively new community trend... lol! #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 The new @theRCOT 5 min reflection tool is great for initial scribblings #otalk |
| Ellie Dixon @EllieDixon_OT @DerbyOTsociety With placements and other commitments, it can be quite difficult to fit other CPD opportunities in. I suppose it's about finding the right opportunities for you. For me, discussions like #OTalk are great and easy to fit in! |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety Exactly! I believe that by doing CPD during studies, students are already getting used to the qualifications restrictions #OTalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 RT @OTalk_: @Cass_OT__ @EllieDixon_OT @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @shout_team Definitely! It's most certainly a CPD activity #Otalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @margaretOT360 @theRCOT Ah yes I've seen that :) I like the @OTalk_ reflective tool too! #OTalk |
 | Angie Hodgson (pronouns: she / her) π @AngieHodgson2 @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk I've been lucky to have both internal and external CPD opportunities. Within uni I've had access to experts by experience, expert practitioners and research participation. Outside of uni I've attended as many DOTS society events as possible and attended NAIDEX |
| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @Katie_Moffat @Laura_Does @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team I have the same to do list!!! π³ #OTalk Sometimes I find I'm not in the right mood to write a reflection either! |
| Deb Duck @debbieduckie @margaretOT360 @theRCOT Iβm using that with the team I supervise. #otalk. Iβm passionate about the fundamentals |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Good idea #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @EllieDixon_OT @DerbyOTsociety I definitely understand. I think I am showing you guys how it can be done! I am working full time (though in quarantine now because of COVID-19), actively involve in AOTA, and also actively involve in TED community on top of that. I know I make many people's heads spin! #otalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @Laura_Does @Katie_Moffat @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team Me too! With placement as well Iβve been doing the minimum of 2 reflections a week! #OTalk |
| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @Laura_Does @Katie_Moffat @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team Do you find you reflect differently if more time has passed? The intensity of some experiences has gone so you can see the bigger picture more? I worry I might forget important bits as time passes though! #OTalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @NaidexShow Yes itβd be lovely to go but when you have a disability it isnβt that simple! #OTalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 To be fair to all the students on here the whole of your course is your #CPD as well as placement #OTalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @GeorgiaVineOT @Katie_Moffat @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team They can be great even as a way to jot down points you want to come back to later to help with assignments :) #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @anyadei @Katie_Moffat @Laura_Does @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team I have a different to-do list. It is a CPD goals checklist, as well as a separate bucket list. Though the goals checklist items can also appear on the bucket list, too! #otalk |
| Student Platform OT @SPOTeurope That is the beauty of social media we think - accessible 24/7 and also doesn't include cost or travel! #OTalk |
| Jade Nixon @JadeElizabethOT RT @DerbyOTsociety: Question 1! What CPD events have you been able to access whilst being a student, has this been internal or external to your curriculum? #OTalk |
| Jade Nixon @JadeElizabethOT RT @DerbyOTsociety: Qu 2: How easy do you think it is to access CPD as a student alongside your studies? #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety #Otalk |
| Angie Hodgson (pronouns: she / her) π @AngieHodgson2 @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk it's definitely a balancing act. For me I felt that the opportunities were there but I didn't always have the time to attend due to studies / family responsibilities. I also struggled to find the time to reflect on and note down what I'd gained, an essential part of CPD |
| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @NaidexShow I quite agree! I was v ill in my early 20's and struggled with conferences (ended up doing my speaker slot at some via video if I wasn't well or spending a few days recovering afterwards!). I think big conferences are getting better at live streaming which I found helped! #OTalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @anyadei @Katie_Moffat @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team I think I read somewhere that the best way to reflect is in 3 parts. First, right after. Second, after a short time. An third, after something has changed. Anyway it stuck with me. Though I tend to do a mini reflection after time has passed #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety @BillWongOT @anyadei @Katie_Moffat @Laura_Does @GeorgiaVineOT @OTalk_ @shout_team A great way to prioritise! #OTalk |
| Ellie Dixon @EllieDixon_OT @BillWongOT @DerbyOTsociety Definitely! I suppose that it's a good lesson in occupational balance! #OTalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @anyadei @Laura_Does @Katie_Moffat @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team Yeah definitely I like to do it no later than a week after the event. I would hate to start a fresh week of placement without reflecting on the previous. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Cass_OT__ I tried one this month and I got supportive feedback. It can be a fun multidisciplinary mingle opportunity... as if there is a big group, you can always use breakout rooms to make sure everyone has a chance to participate in intimate conversation. #otalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety @debbieduckie @margaretOT360 @theRCOT You sound like a great supervisor! #OTalk |
| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @GeorgiaVineOT @Laura_Does @Katie_Moffat @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team Good point, otherwise you loose the opportunity to put into practice the learning from the reflection! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @EllieDixon_OT @DerbyOTsociety Well- I have crossed over to the dark side... haha! Many people in the TEDx curating community are constantly having occupational balance issues! #otalk |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ @BillWongOT #OTalk I know and thatβs so nice! Which topic did you do this month? |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @NaidexShow Definitely! Well Iβm hosting a webinar Thursday so weβll see how successful that is.π #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety We are loving the link between conversations stemmed from qu 1 and 2! Question 3 to be posted in a second - but feel free to carry on with your conversations! It is so great to see peoples experiences and views! #OTalk |
| Ellie Dixon @EllieDixon_OT @Laura_Does @anyadei @Katie_Moffat @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team That's a good idea - I often need a while to process the event and think before I can start a written reflection! But I agree about not leaving it too long otherwise it can all be a bit hazy! #OTalk |
| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @Laura_Does @Katie_Moffat @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team Oh thats a really useful tip - thank you! Will be sure to test that out... #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety Qu3: What barriers have you come across in terms of accessing CPD as a student (personally and structurally?) #OTalk |
| Katie Moffat @Katie_Moffat @DerbyOTsociety I've found it quite manageable so far to access CPD opportunities. I tend to generate a list as time goes on, as throughout term time I prioritise my classes and assignments. Having time to fully dedicate to CPD can be difficult in term time. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Cass_OT__ the theme for this month is "life at its fullest". So, I picked a TEDx talk that I think would fit the theme, prepared discussion questions, and then facilitated. That took me 1-2 hours to prepare, and then 1-2 hours for the actual event. #otalk |
| Ellie Dixon @EllieDixon_OT @margaretOT360 That's true, sometimes I forget how much we are learning and taking in! #OTalk |
| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @NaidexShow Ooooh good luck! I'm sure you'll be great! What is the topic? #OTalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @Laura_Does @anyadei @Katie_Moffat @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team I like you style! I often think that my blogs are a form of CPD but I donβt know? #OTalk |
| Lauren Scarisbrick π @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk When I was in my first year of Uni I found it more difficult to access CPD events due to not knowing where to look or what to look for but through networking and Twitter I have been able to discover more events and be more engaged. |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 RT @EllieDixon_OT: @margaretOT360 That's true, sometimes I forget how much we are learning and taking in! #OTalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @DerbyOTsociety @anyadei @Katie_Moffat @Laura_Does @GeorgiaVineOT @OTalk_ @shout_team Yes- for example, in 2017, I crossed off the "OT conference slam" from my bucket list. What I mean by that is- attending AOTA, RCOT, CAOT, and OT Australia conference at least once. Another example- in 2015, I spoke at a TEDx event. That got crossed off as well. #otalk |
| Katie Moffat @Katie_Moffat @Laura_Does @anyadei @GeorgiaVineOT @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team I really like this idea! I tend to wait a bit before reflecting so I allow myself time to consider what happened and how i have learned from it/dealt with it. But really like the idea of doing that in three parts! thank you! #OTalk |

| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @DerbyOTsociety Personally, I've had times when I couldn't manage more than just what I had to do for uni. I think everyone has those times though - and having awareness of your own capabilities and need for occupational balance is very useful! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety I second that. My first year felt like a blur! I only attend conferences per recommendation from my instructors. I did not know as many people in OT as I have now. #otalk |

| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety I've only been a student for 3 months (and COVID19=lots has suddenly been made available online) so not really come across any barriers yet... but maybe thats because I'm not finding 'proper' CPD opportunities, which is a imposter syndrome style fear I get quite often! #OTalk |

| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety Twitter has been a godsend! I didn't have any social media when I started uni (had an online cleanse kinda thing for a couple of years). But signed up on my first day after @KerryEdwardsOT suggested it as a learning tool :) #OTalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Cass_OT__ No- so how it works is this. The facilitator will pick the pre-existing TED or TEDx talk for the TEDCircle event. Best practice for online is- you should not tell your participants what you will show them, but you can prepare discussion questions before hand. #otalk |

I find them very insightful, and helped me reflect on a few different things (esp how I feel about my own patient experience!) #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety Agreed - thank you @GeorgiaVineOT - maybe you don't realise how much we value you and learn from you! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SPOTeurope Absolutely! Although it's crazy that our most expensive conferences are actually cheap relatively to TED ones for its organizers. #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Of course #CPD can be many things that make you stop and think about your practice, and then makes a difference #OTalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @anyadei @Laura_Does @Katie_Moffat @DerbyOTsociety @OTalk_ @shout_team Thank you! Thatβs a very good question I wouldnβt even know who to ask to find out? #OTalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SPOTeurope and I think this pandemic sort of brings up this about conferences- do I want to pay for these now so that I can have experiences under my belt, or defer to my qualified days so that I can afford them later? #otalk |
| Katie Moffat @Katie_Moffat @DerbyOTsociety In first year I found it difficult, likely from lack of understanding, not knowing where to look, what was reputable. But growing in confidence and having the support of my lecturers has helped me seek out opportunities this year that have helped immensely! #OTalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @Cass_OT__ @DerbyOTsociety Definitely - a major issue for a lot of students is money. I went to the RCOT 2019 conference with savings I made before uni. I couldn't have afforded it otherwise and it was such a brilliant experience #OTalk |
| Angie Hodgson (pronouns: she / her) π @AngieHodgson2 @DerbyOTsociety Maybe that's something that @DerbyOTsociety could look at for the future. I would have loved something like that when I started #OTalk |

| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @JadeElizabethOT @DerbyOTsociety Yes, and what counts as 'proper'?!

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Cass_OT__ Right now, because I am a member of the TEDx curating community, so I have connections to people who are running them.

| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @AngieHodgson2 @DerbyOTsociety I agree - my 90-minute commute to uni meant I generally only went in on days I had teaching time. #OTalk |

| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ @Laura_Does @DerbyOTsociety This is a very common thing for students. Does your uni do something for student funding? My uni for example funds me for attending conferences, I only need to pay travel and living costs. #OTalk |
| Ellie Dixon @EllieDixon_OT @DerbyOTsociety I've found it difficult to know how to evidence CPD, what we've learnt and how it's made a difference to practice, does it always need to be through written reflection? Something that I find difficult but I am trying to work on! #OTalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Cass_OT__ It feels a little bit like an exclusive club for now, because they haven't have a system on how the public can join these things. I know TED will work on this eventually. But, it's fun because I got to participate ones from China, Tunisia, and Poland. #otalk |
| Katie Moffat @Katie_Moffat @DerbyOTsociety Personally- I knew what a great resource twitter could be professionally, but was initially scared to make the jump of having a 'professional self' and how to go about being part of an online community.

| Lauren Scarisbrick π @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk I would just say get involved with as much as you can! CPD will shape your professional identity and your own personal views.

| Jade Nixon @JadeElizabethOT @DerbyOTsociety My best advice would be to get out there. Make and engage on twitter, reach out to people, ask questions, take opportunities. Everything is a learning experience #OTalk |
| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety It really refreshes my motivation for the course (esp. if I've felt tired or had a bad day), and makes me read/watch things I wouldn't normally engage with!

| Ellie Dixon @EllieDixon_OT @SPOTeurope Definitely! I've felt more confident to engage with and look for more CPD opportunities now that I've begun to get involved with #OTalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT RT @LaurenemilyOT: @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk I would just say get involved with as much as you can! CPD will shape your professional identity and your own personal views. Also, it allows you to develop your passion for the career by expanding your skills, development and knowledge! |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety YES! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SPOTeurope In the USA, I took on 2 new grads for @OTDiversity's Minority Mentorship program. Aside from our monthly check-in's, I added service learning component for both mentees, as they will work along side me in AOTA's Community of Leaders group. #otalk |
| Jade Nixon @JadeElizabethOT @debbieduckie @margaretOT360 I definitely will carry it on! I found it useful having a day to just organise everything CPD, and make it neat and prettyπ plus it helped me to notice learning gaps, and where to continue seeking opportunities! #OTalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety Couldnβt agree more! #OTalk |
 | Deborah Harrison ππ @DebbiiHarrison Thank you for the mention Anya π |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety Well guys, everyone has been absolutely amazing tonight and we can't thank you enough for getting so involved! We have really enjoyed it and enjoyed reading your comments! Also, thank you #OTalk for having us! Take care everyone, keep smiling, and keep going! |
| Cassandra @Cass_OT__ Thank you @DerbyOTsociety for this #OTalk! I had a great time and gained new insights ππ |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @DerbyOTsociety and don't be afraid to go international! I admit I stumbled into UK OT community by accident... as I got connected to an autistic OT practitioner from the UK 9 years ago! That sort of led to a whole host of international connections since! #otalk |
| Deb Duck @debbieduckie @JadeElizabethOT @margaretOT360 @RCOT career development to may be of interest #OTalk |
| Lauren Scarisbrick π @LaurenemilyOT @DerbyOTsociety Thank you so much! Was great to be involved and hear everyones thoughts! π #OTalk |

| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @JadeElizabethOT @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety Of course - never waste a good reflection! π #OTalk |
| Anya de Iongh @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety Thank YOU - a lovely supportive discussion! Lots to reflect on for my own CPD, so really useful too! Thanks! π #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @debbieduckie @JadeElizabethOT @margaretOT360 @rcot and don't forget if you have access to instructors who have global reach, take advantage! I started locally, but began to think globally about 8 years ago when @sarah_bodell became my doctoral project advisor for my OTD in the USA. #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Fantastic set of questions and excellent topic area, I sure we could have all carried on! #CPD is the backbone of your career as a member of @The_HCPC @theRCOT Well Done @DerbyOTsociety #OTalk |
| Jade Nixon @JadeElizabethOT @debbieduckie @margaretOT360 @rcot Thank you, I will definitely have a look. I have done the 5 year plan from Rcot! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @Rachel_SOT @Cass_OT__ next week, TED will actually start a new podcast called TEDShorts. I think you will be interested in that too! #otalk |
| πΊπ¦π³οΈβπGeorgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT Well what an amazing talk well done @DerbyOTsociety! Iβm so gutted Iβm not meeting you all now but Iβm sure weβll meet when this is all over!#OTalk π |
| Katie Moffat @Katie_Moffat Thank you @DerbyOTsociety for being brilliant hosts on @OTalk_ this evening! I'll be taking note of a lot of ideas from the CPD chat! #OTalk https://t.co/RLUQK0dnWw |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @BillWongOT @Rachel_SOT @Cass_OT__ Oooh thanks Bill! π #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @debbieduckie @JadeElizabethOT @margaretOT360 @rcot I know my students generally had this reaction when they realized I am a faculty, "This guy does a lot of international work. I don't know how he does it even though he is practicing for less than 10 years!" #otalk |
| Jade Nixon @JadeElizabethOT @debbieduckie @DerbyOTsociety That would be great, we will let you know! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Rachel_SOT @Laura_Does @Cass_OT__ It's also one of the times where OT is on top of new trends. I found this out a few days ago when I received an email from TED to its present and former organizers... lol! #otalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @debbieduckie @anyadei @margaretOT360 I'm not sure my fellow train commuters would appreciate me belting anything out but Johnny Cash songs are going on my playlist! π #OTalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @BillWongOT @Rachel_SOT @Cass_OT__ Amazing! I love that OT is getting a spotlight for once! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @Rachel_SOT @Cass_OT__ Actually, that's not the spotlight. When I told the TED community that I got positive for COVID-19, the support globally was amazing! I even got an email from TED/TEDx Community team saying that they are proud of me being a member of the TED community. #otalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @DerbyOTsociety Thank you guys! What a great chat π #OTalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @debbieduckie @DerbyOTsociety I can recommend Deb since she did a fab CPD session for @YSJOTSOC ! π #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @Rachel_SOT @Cass_OT__ and right now, I am signing up to be involved in the planning team for an online TEDxSalon event in Poland in 7 weeks. It will be an event made up of entirely musical performances and the organizing team consists of present and former TEDx organizers. #otalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @BillWongOT @Rachel_SOT @Cass_OT__ That's so lovely! You do have a great reach Bill π I hope you're on the mend now! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @Rachel_SOT @Cass_OT__ I know many people in OT land will be like, "Bill! How can be involved in such a global project outside of OT, especially given that what you do in OT should keep you occupied already?" #otalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @BillWongOT @Rachel_SOT @Cass_OT__ I was definitely thinking this! π #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Rachel_SOT @Laura_Does @Cass_OT__ I know my late mentor will faint had I told her this if she is still alive today. She will be like, "Bill... what you are doing is making my dreams look small! You are inspiring me to up my game!" #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @Rachel_SOT @Cass_OT__ I think I am setting a very high bar for whoever is coming after me in OT to get involved in the TEDx curating world. The person who will take the baton from me got to be a juggernaut! #otalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @BillWongOT @Rachel_SOT @Cass_OT__ So true! π #otalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @JadeElizabethOT @margaretOT360 What a great idea! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @Rachel_SOT @Cass_OT__ I bet whoever wants to follow my footsteps in this will ask me, "What is life like on that side?" I will just say, "Well... be prepared for constant episodes of occupational imbalance. Doing this will feel like you are working in a high-stress part time job for free." #otalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @BillWongOT @Rachel_SOT @Cass_OT__ Make sure you look after yourself too Bill :) #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @Rachel_SOT @Cass_OT__ That's why I am not taking the lead any more whenever I am involved in that front. I rather play the role of a good sidekick/role player. That said, a role player in that realm is STILL a lot of work. #otalk |
 | #Hellomynameis Sarah (she/her) π πΊπ¦ π·π³οΈβπ @SLawsonOT @anyadei @DerbyOTsociety 'proper' CPD? π€ Any activity from which we learn & develop our practice/future practice may count. Skill to develop is to recognise every day learning which could be CPD, engage with our learning apply it in practice and measure the impact on ourselves & others #otalk #TRAMmCPD |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @EllieDixon_OT @DerbyOTsociety It can be good to try 2 out on one subject - though I wouldn't recommend doing it the first time for uni work - maybe a simple reflection on something you did in the week. Then you have an idea of how you can apply those questions to your subject and if you like them :) #otalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @EllieDixon_OT @DerbyOTsociety Also it might be worth finding out what forms of CPD the hcpc accept. I'm sure there are plenty of OTs and other AHPs who struggle with written reflection, and who instead reflect in other ways. Not sure how (audio maybe π€)... But worth looking into :) #otalk |
 | Burning Nights CRPS @BNightsCRPS RT @MegB95: I have been to an incredible amount of CPD events thanks to @DerbyOTsociety (My favourites being @Aerobility with @KaptainKevman and Community Mental health with @RamsellEleanor). I was also able to attend a conference on Cerebal palsy and a lecture with @BNightsCRPS #OTalk |
| Laura ππππ @Laura_Does @EllieDixon_OT @DerbyOTsociety I also like drawing, so have incorporated some of my reflections into kind of infographic-type-things. It's a nice way to break up your cpd folder too, so it's not all writing #otalk |
| Ellie Dixon @EllieDixon_OT @Laura_Does @DerbyOTsociety Thanks for these Laura! They're really great ideas, I've got lots to explore! #OTalk |
 | Paul Wilkinson @PaulWilkinson94 RT @SLawsonOT: @easduncan The @ElizabethCasso1 are also offering funding towards COVID related OT projects #otalk https://t.co/o3o0EXqUh2 |
 | β¨Annie OT Studentβ¨ @AnnieSevern_OT RT @EllieDixon_OT: @DerbyOTsociety I've found it difficult to know how to evidence CPD, what we've learnt and how it's made a difference to practice, does it always need to be through written reflection? Something that I find difficult but I am trying to work on! #OTalk |
| β¨Annie OT Studentβ¨ @AnnieSevern_OT RT @margaretOT360: CPD can be ANY learning activity relevant to your current or future practice #otalk |
| β¨Annie OT Studentβ¨ @AnnieSevern_OT @DerbyOTsociety My advice would be to make sure you include CPD in your list of priorities, allocate time for it and maintain it as part of your routine! Also start as you mean to go on! I wish I started to prioritise my CPD at the beginning of my course. #OTalk |
| β¨Annie OT Studentβ¨ @AnnieSevern_OT RT @Katie_Moffat: @DerbyOTsociety Personally- I knew what a great resource twitter could be professionally, but was initially scared to make the jump of having a 'professional self' and how to go about being part of an online community. (Pleased to say I'm no longer scared and love the community spirit) #OTalk |
| β¨Annie OT Studentβ¨ @AnnieSevern_OT @DerbyOTsociety It took me a while to understand what is classed as CPD, how to access CPD opportunities and I used to just think βwhere do I even start?!β I think a barrier was not asking for help, advice and guidance from my lecturers, educators, peers etc... #OTalk |
| β¨Annie OT Studentβ¨ @AnnieSevern_OT @DerbyOTsociety I think it is definitely accessible and there are opportunities out there, but itβs about time management. CPD doesnβt seem to have been emphasised early on in my course, so I didnβt understand the importance of it and only tried to balance uni work and placement instead #OTalk |
| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety RT @mrsmcinburtott: Well done team @DerbyOTsociety hosting #OTalk tonight. Iβve lurked (didnβt want to cramp your style) https://t.co/Bvmj7yAQ1k |

| D.O.T.S @DerbyOTsociety Thank you! And thanks for the guidance - so useful! @DerbyOT |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 RT @DerbyOTsociety: Agreed! Social media is a great way to access CPD and also find out about it! #OTalk |
