CARTE Accreditation: Implications for the Recreational Therapy Practitioner

lundi 16 septembre 2019 à 13:30–15:00 PDT
Session Description (for use in the program and for marketing purposes)

The Committee on Accreditation of Recreational Therapy Education (CARTE) provides academic program accreditation in recreational therapy (RT) as part of the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Programs (CAAHEP).  As such, conversations surrounding CARTE often focus on issues related to higher education programs and systems, RT educators, and RT students.  However, RT program accreditation is also aligned with the healthcare environment and workforce, and can have a significant impact on professional practice.  Therefore, it is important for RT practitioners to also be aware of and understand CARTE accreditation. This session will provide an overview of CARTE accreditation and highlight implications for the RT profession overall, and the RT practitioner specifically.
