Resumen
The subject specific competences referred to as TUNING or European competences, refer to the performance of the occupational therapy practitioner, in other words they are the competences that guide the whole educational programme in occupational therapy. For this reason the competences were developed through a close collaboration and active involvement of both the educators (ENOTHE) and the practitioners (COTEC).
Key areas of interest are as follows, ·Chapter 2 The Introduction to occupational therapy, gives you an excellent description of occupational therapy, its history , theoretical foundations, terminology and language and will help you to understand your own profession in depth and enable you to explain the profession to others.
·Chapter 3 Summary of the occupational therapy TUNING process, will give you an insight into how the specific competences were developed. The levels of competences are clearly explained, which will enable you to make your own individual life long learning /CPD programme, addressing the specific competencies.
·Chapter 4 Although this chapter about the application of competences is more on education, several parts are highly interesting for those occupational therapist who are supervising students in fieldwork. For example 4.4. Fieldwork. This section gives insight into methods used in structuring the learning processes in fieldwork practice and gives benefits and barriers to using competences in fieldwork placements.
·Chapter 7 Application of competences in Practice shows how the competences are used in the development of Standards of practice and a Code of Ethics. The publication: Developing Code of Ethics – COTEC Policy and guidelines 2010, (see elsewhere on the COTEC website) is based on the TUNING competences.
