GOTA is now accepting proposals for the 2025 Occupational Therapy Annual Conference! This year’s theme, Digging Deep: Uncovering the Root Cause and Discovering Practical Solutions, invites presenters to explore the underlying factors affecting occupational performance and share real-world strategies that lead to meaningful change.

We seek engaging, evidence-based, and solution-focused presentations that help practitioners address complex challenges in everyday practice. Whether you specialize in clinical interventions, research, education, or policy, we encourage you to submit proposals that offer practical, hands-on applications to enhance occupational therapy across diverse settings.

Presentation Formats:

  • Workshops (interactive, skill-building sessions)
  • Oral Presentations (research findings, case studies, or best practices)
  • Poster Sessions (concise visual presentations of research or practice insights)
  • "Dig Deep"  Discussions  (collaborative conversations on key issues)

Dig Deep is a dynamic new conference series designed to foster collaborative discussions that go beyond the surface. Each session will focus on getting to the root of key challenges in occupational therapy and exploring how we can translate research into actionable practice.

Through interactive conversations, expert insights, and real-world case applications, Dig Deep provides a space for practitioners, researchers, and educators to come together, break down complex issues, and develop practical, evidence-based solutions that enhance everyday practice. 

 Successful proposals will:

  • Clearly articulate learning outcomes

  • Appropriately identify teaching strategies that match proposed learning outcomes

  • Provide current and relevant information and evidence to support proposal
