    The previous days, I was very confused in choosing medical technology or occupational therapy as my course for college, but by seeing this video, I was really touched and inspired to help other people change their lives, to connect with them and enjoy doing my job as an occupational therapist. Thank you for posting such a heart touching, informative, inspiring and beautiful video!

    @dungboy0 here's a few questions you should ask yourself, you say you like to get to know people, which is a good start in understanding them and what you can help them with. What about these?
    Do you enjoy helping people and solving problems?
    Are you patient, practical, creative and a good communicator?
    Do you want to help people optimise their quality of life?
    Have a look at our website to find out more about becoming an OT.

    If you want more information about becoming an OT, have a look at the "Study OT" section of our website, where you can find information on courses and universities and download our Careers Handbook.

    Is it harder for men to break into this field? I am really interested in finding a career that is meaningful and helps others. Clearly becoming an OT would be great. I worry that I wouldn't be academic enough also.
