Schedule for Full-time Fieldwork Courses
Minimum Requirements (Schedule) For Full-Time Level II Fieldwork
A minimum of 24 weeks of occupational therapy fieldwork, which are typically completed in two, 12-week, full-time equivalent placements, is required for graduation from the program. Full-time fieldwork for a majority of Level II Fieldworks entails students being on-site for a minimum of 35 to 40 hours per week for 12 weeks duration (per the fieldwork site’s definition of ‘full-time’). Therefore, participation in Level II Fieldwork involves a schedule that is commensurate to full-time work. Any missed days will be recorded on E*Value system and may require the student to add additional days to “make-up” for missed time.
Part-Time Level II Fieldwork Policy
For fieldwork settings with part-time schedules that involve less than 35 to 40 hours per week, the Program recommends extending the duration of the placement in order to meet the full-time requirement for the degree. Level II fieldwork hours are determined by total full-time week equivalents. Students will work with the fieldwork office to determine how they are meeting fieldwork hour requirements.
