Job Shadow Program

ConnOTA welcomes individuals who are interested in pursuing a career and education in the field of OT to meet with clinicians individually for interviews or in their clinic for patient session observations.  It is a wonderful way to learn about Occupational Therapy and the many settings in which we function.  We are very grateful to the volunteers who have offered to share their expertise with you!

How to Arrange a Job Shadow Experience

Contact [email protected] to receive a list of therapists throughout the state who are willing to host job shadows.  Please be aware that some therapists/sites may have patient observation restrictions or preliminary background checks and orientation sessions which would need to be individually arranged prior. 

Job Shadow opportunities are available in the following practice areas:
  • Pediatrics
  • Acute Care
  • Long Term Care
  • Mental Health
  • School Based
  • Physical Disability
  • Education/Administration


  We would love to have you share a testimonial once you complete your job shadow!
