Mission Statement

The Occupational Therapy Assistant (OTA) Program provides an environment where students can pursue technical expertise in the field of occupational therapy while developing spiritually, intellectually, and socially.

The program and faculty are committed to excellence in educating competent occupational therapy assistants who have an understanding of the beliefs, values, and principles of the Christian tradition and the University's mission of healthcare as ministry. While providing an understanding of the science of occupational therapy, it is the program’s goal to incorporate the University’s vision of an environment that supports nurturing, excellence, spirituality, and stewardship into the curriculum.
