Are you a PT or OT ready to
fast-track your clinical expertise?

This Course of Mentorship is designed to move you along the continuum from novice to mastery in your profession. You will gain advanced knowledge and skills tailored for practical use and your professional goals. While it may sound simple, achieving this requires intention and strategy. Weekend courses often fall short by bombarding you with information within a limited timeframe.

That's precisely why our Mentorship Course spans several months. We accommodate your schedule, providing ample time for reflection and repeated engagement with the material. This ensures seamless integration of new learning into practice.

We guarantee that a course of mentorship will elevate your practice to the next level!

What our students are saying...

I am so much more confident with my manual handling skills and ability to build rapport with patient's. I really appreciated the regular reflection and getting articles and podcasts that were relevant to my practice. This last 3-months has been a game-changer for my patient's and job satisfaction.
ASHLEY S (MPT)
I have always struggled learning from weekend courses. I also don't love giving up a full weekend to do this. Instead I picked the times that worked for me to learn and it made it so easy to get better. I am also more confident knowing the literature better and have been inspired to teach others about it. 
PATRICK C (MOT)
I was ready to leave the physio profession, I was so disenchanted. I spent a few months with Nathan and it completely changed my world. We honed in on my knowledge gaps and I got a ton of practice building my exercise, pain education, manual skills and so much more. Thank you!

The Journey

Our Mentorship Course is designed to enhance your practice with greater depth, ease, and confidence. To ensure effective learning, we incorporate several key ingredients. One crucial element is the initial discovery session, where you'll discuss your current practice, goals, and collaboratively create a tailored plan with your mentor to achieve them. Following this, you and your mentor will use a diverse range of learning activities to help you meet your goals.

These activities may include self-reflections, case study reviews, analysis of key research or resources, and repeated practice of communication skills and therapeutic techniques. All of these components contribute to a comprehensive course where you receive personalized feedback and tailored learning.

FAQ's

What is the discovery session? 
To begin, purchase your PT or OT mentorship course! Afterward, you'll receive a welcome email prompting you to share your preferred mentor and availability. We'll then connect you with your mentor to schedule your first session.During this initial DISCOVERY SESSION, you'll meet with your mentor to explore your needs, goals, and challenges. Your mentor will ask questions to understand your context better and collaborate with you to create a tailored learning plan. You can also discuss the pacing of your four additional sessions and optimize the use of other learning opportunities available in your mentorship course.
What will my mentorship session look like?  

A mentorship session can vary based on the mentee's specific needs. Typically, it involves a virtual one-on-one meeting between the mentor and mentee, where they collaboratively decide on activities to help the mentee achieve their professional goals. This could involve unpacking a case study, discussing a research paper, addressing a question or challenge, or focusing on skill development. The mentor may provide feedback, share experiences, offer advice, provide coaching, or recommend resources to support the mentee's goals.
What is the OT Community of Practice?

The OT Community of Practice is a weekly gathering of passionate and community-minded occupational therapists. These sessions focus on exploring relevant practice topics. Meetings occur virtually every Tuesday from 1-2 PM PST. Your mentor will share a schedule of upcoming topics, allowing you to decide when to join, learn, and engage in discussions!
How does the shadowing work?

Physiotherapist mentees have the option to shadow their mentor for two hours following one of their sessions, provided they are in close geographical proximity. Job shadowing offers experiential learning, allowing mentees to observe and learn from clinicians in action. During this experience, mentees can observe their mentor's activities, ask questions, and gain firsthand knowledge of clinical practice.

Additionally, mentees may have the chance to participate in some tasks under the mentor's guidance. The mentor will coordinate with mentees to schedule the job shadowing experience. This hands-on approach provides valuable insights into integrating patient education with various interventions, incorporating principles of behavioral science and learning psychology.
Do I have to use my 5 sessions within the prescribed 3 month (PT) or 6 month (OT) period?

Yes. This timeframe was intentionally chosen to allow clinicians to practice and reinforce skills at a pace suitable for their disciplines. It starts from the date of your first mentorship session. Any extenuating circumstances will be handled on a case-by-case basis. During the Discovery Session, you'll explore how to maximize the additional resources available within your mentorship course throughout this defined period.
How do I select my mentor and dates for my sessions? 

After you purchase the Course of Mentorship, you will receive a welcome email from AMP. Simply reply to this email with the mentor you would like to work with. In your reply, also provide 5 potential session dates and times, each 2-weeks apart. Once this has been received, we will send your contact information along with your preferred dates and times to your mentor and they will reach out to within 1-2 business days.
