  This article reports on a national survey of 272 pediatric occupational therapists, who responded to questions about their training needs in the area of assistive technology and delivering assistive technology services. A sizable percentage of these therapists reported less-than-adequate training in policies governing assistive technology services and the organization and function of the service system. These findings underscore the need to develop pre-service and in-service training in assistive technology for providers who work with children who have disabilities.
