There is primarily a focus on Occupational Therapy (OT) topics but depending on demand, we will also offer CPD with other professionals e.g Speech and Language Therapists, Child Psychologists.
Some of the OT topics covered will include:
-Understanding the Impact of Sensory Needs on Learning
-Understanding & Designing Sensory, Movement & Brain Breaks
-Supporting Challenging Behaviours: An OT Perspective
-Supporting Fine Motor Skills & Designing Activities for School
-Understanding & Supporting Handwriting Challenges
-Gross Motor Skill Development, Strength & Endurance
-Supporting Independence Skills in School
-Designing Sensory Spaces & Using Sensory Tools
-Discussing a Student’s OT needs with a Parent
You select the plan depending on the number of staff in your school e.g Teachers, SNAs, TAs etc.
For example: If your school has over 10 staff who work with children, select the Countryside Plan, or if your school has over 30 staff working with children, select the City Plan.
Once you sign up you will be brought to a page where you can download an excel file. This excel file will include fields where you can add in the details of those who are to be registered.
Once you have this filled in, you can send it back to hello@myotandme.com and each of the registrants will receive an email with their account details once set up, which is typically within 3 working days.
Each registrant will be notified of each CPD opportunity by email each month and they will also have access to mini-courses and the recording through their account.
Ya this is no problem at all, you can join at any time of the year. You will have access to the recordings of the previous webinars that you may have missed. Most schools are using our CPD Plans for the recordings as the live webinars not mandatory as they are held in the evenings.

When you sign up for one of the school CPD plans, it gives you access for 12 months to the webinars and all other resources.
When you pay, you are signing up for a subscription meaning your school will be charged again in 12 months time (if you do not cancel in the meantime).
Subscriptions can be easily cancelled at any time through your account and you will not lose access to the platform until your 12 months are up.
You are notified by email 3 days before your subscription renewal so you have time to change your plan if you need to.
Yes of course. You can cancel your subscription at any time and you will continue to have access to all CPD until your 12 months are up.
If you want to get your certificate after attending the live webinar or watching the recording as part of a group training:
The School CPD plans are available for any school in any country. If timezones are an issue, you will have access to the recordings for the year. If there is enough demand from schools in your country, we will organise additional live webinars to be held at a more suitable time for your schools staff.
At present webinars are held at 19:00 Irish time (7pm Irish time). All webinars are in English only.

I would recommend choosing one of the School CPD plans which you can see on the website.
If you would prefer just to sign up for a specific webinar, you will need to register each teacher individually as there is no way to add multiple registrations at the same time.
If you are on the School CPD plan, your certificate will be available through your account where the recordings are available.
If you are not part of a School CPD plan, and you haven't received your certificate within 5 working days, please contact us at hello@myotandme.com with the name of the webinar you attended.
Yes, recordings are made available from Friday to Sunday following the live webinar. If you are a school, recording are available for the year when you sign up to the school CPD plan.
