TOTA Student Membership Circle

ATTENTION PROGRAM DIRECTORS: The Student Membership Circle 2024

Students are a fundamental part of our organization.  Student membership, involvement and engagement is critical while they are fledglings within our profession. Prioritizing state association membership while students and retaining students through the transition into new practitioners is key, for the survival of this organization and the OT profession in Texas.  We would like to recognize educational institutions that are championing this cause by encouraging TOTA membership for their students. 

TOTA Student Membership Circle members are determined based on the number of enrolled students that are also current, active members of TOTA. If accepted, each academic program will receive special recognition from TOTA.

Gold Level Recognition = 100% TOTA Student Membership
Silver Level Recognition = 80% TOTA Student Membership
Bronze Level Recognition = 75% TOTA Student Membership
The submissions deadline is October 15, 2024. You will receive an email acknowledgment once you submit the form. For questions regarding the TOTA student membership circle contact [email protected].
