🎉 Exciting News! 🎉
The University of North Alabama’s Occupational Therapy Assistant Baccalaureate Program has officially been granted Candidacy Status by the Accreditation Council of Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE)!
This milestone is the result of hard work, collaboration, and a shared vision for expanding OT education in North Alabama. We can’t wait to welcome our first cohort in January 2026 and begin serving students and our community through this one-of-a-kind program in our region. 💜💛
