| The OTD program combines distance and on-site education methods. The distance format is
a part of all courses mediated through the Blackboard System. Students will be given a blackboard account and privileges
to the VCU libraries that are set up for distance education students. The program is designed to reach practicing OTs who
may not be able to leave their jobs to attend school. Compact on-campus components have been integrated into many courses
to enable both didactic content and cohort formation. These on-campus sessions will be interspersed throughout the
curriculum and will occur approximately twice a year for 2-3 days. These on-campus times will be combined between courses
and semesters and will be announced a semester prior to their occurrence. |
