The CAOTFC represents the Occupational Therapy Programs in California and the dedicated team of Academic Fieldwork Coordinators across the state. Established in 1995, the council was created to provide a support network and education to academic and clinical coordinators who mentor the hundreds of students who enter the field of Occupational Therapy through fieldwork each year.  It also aims to facilitate the development of quality fieldwork opportunities. Our passionate and skilled team members are here to help clinicians become great educators and students to become successful professionals in our field of Occupational Therapy.
