The key function of the Australian Competency Standards for Occupational Therapy Driver Assessors is to outline the knowledge, skills and attributes required for practice by an OTDA. Competency standards can be utilised to evaluate clinical practice against the expected standard and to guide the development of education programs and curriculum. Competency standards can be used by statutory bodies such as the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) when reviewing occupational therapists’ practice.
