How To Become An Occupational Therapist Occupational therapists need at least a Masterâs Degree in Occupational Therapy (MSOT) in order to practice. All states also require licensing for occupational therapists, though licensing requirements may vary from state to state.
A master's degree is the minimum standard for becoming a practicing occupational therapist, and admission to occupational therapy degree programs is competitive. The average master's degree program takes a student two and a half years to complete.
