Knee Floater? About two years ago, I took a bad fall on a log over a creek in Alaska. I went down hard (I'm fat) and the outside of my left leg took the brunt of it. Since then, I have had intermittent severe pain behind the knee that hits and is gone in a flash. There is no warning when it's going to happen.
To become an occupational therapist, you'll need a minimum of a master's degree in occupational therapy. The following article offers information on preparing for and entering an occupational therapy program, as well as information about certification and licensure.
Master's Degrees. Graduate programs that qualify students for the occupational therapy licensing exam receive accreditation from the Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education, or ACOTE. A master's degree usually requires two years of full-time study after the bachelor's degree.ome programs offer a combined bachelor's and master's degree in five years. Students first complete the occupational therapy prerequisite classes while earning a bachelor's degree. They then take graduate-level classes and complete the clinical work for the master's degree.
