Résumé :	Internationally, there are currently four recognized education pathways for an individual to qualify as an occupational therapist: via an undergraduate degree, a diploma, graduate entry masters (GEMs), or entry-level occupational therapy clinical doctorate (OTD). Countries vary in which programs they offer. The United Kingdom (UK) and Australia currently offer pre-registration undergraduate and GEMs courses while Canada only offers GEMs entry-level programs. The United States (USA) offers GEMs (and combined undergraduate/masters entry), and is currently the only country that offers OTDs as a pre-registration education pathway. At the time of writing, in the USA there are 12 fully accredited OTD courses of this kind, and another 37 in the development or application phase seeking full accreditation by the Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE) (2016). It should be noted that a number of American universities also offer postgraduate OTD courses for clinicians who are already qualified occupational therapists.
