    Completing continuing education is a requirement for practicing therapists. After receiving initial certification, the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT) renewal requirement is designed to ensure that OTRs and COTAs are delivering both consistent and high quality of care. In order to complete this renewal process, occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants are required to complete 36 hours of professional development units. In addition to NBCOT requirements, in the United States, specific state licensure requirements for the profession exist. This document reviews the current licensure requirements for the state of Ohio. In the state of Ohio, occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants are required to complete a minimum of 20 contact hours every two years, with at least one of those contact hours being an ethics education course.
