OT Passport to USA is a comprehensive step-by-step (self-paced online) course to help you start the process of working in the US as a Canadian Occupational Therapist.

OT passport to USA will teach you exactly what to DO and exactly what to EXPECT while pursuing work as a Canadian OT in the US.

You are totally capable of working in the states as a Canadian OT.

You might be wondering…

When is a good time to write the American exam?
What are the main differences between the NOTCE and the NBCOT?
What are my options for work visas?
How can I pay off my Canadian student loans from the U.S.?
What is the ENTIRE process for being certified to work in the U.S.?
What will the job search be like?
What are my housing options?
What types of OT positions (e.g., work settings) are there in the U.S.?
How much does it cost to become an OT in the US?
What is it like working in the U.S. healthcare system?

Meet your course instructors

Hi! We are Karen (left) and Kristina (right). We are two friends who graduated from the MScOT program at University of Toronto in 2015. We knew we both wanted to pursue work in the U.S. as Occupational Therapists, so we began searching for resources online that would give us the step-by-step blueprint and tell us exactly what we needed to do.

Unfortunately, that resource did not exist. All we could find was an old forum from 2002 with a few sentences about working in the states. But what we REALLY wanted to know was - HOW? What do we need to do to actually be certified to work in the US as a Canadian Occupational Therapist?

After trial and error (ahem... rejected visas, miscommunication with recruiters, and costly mistakes), we finally ended up working in the US as New Grad Canadian OTs!

This is exactly why we spent 2+ years creating OT Passport to USA- to help Canadian new grads like yourself transition into working in the US as a Canadian Occupational Therapist without the uncertainty and confusion.

It is definitely a process to work in the U.S. as a Canadian OT. OT passport to USA is the ONLY comprehensive overview of exactly what you need to do to be certified to work in the US, and to do it the right way (i.e., no legal stresses to worry about or over-explaining a mistake you didn't realize you made)

Since launching Two Canadian OTs,

we have helped new grad OTs:

Focus on what to study for the American Exam
Make a plan to move to the states (no more long distance relationships!)
Understand the process of working in the U.S. (through attending our online presentations at Canadian MScOT programs!)
Get their FIRST OT job in the states as a NEW grad
Plan their move to the states without confusion and overwhelm
Learn the differences between the American and Canadian healthcare system and how it relates to your work as an OT
