Form FAQ
How many observation hours do OT programs require?
It varies a lot — some programs ask for 20–40 hours, others want more, and many want them spread across different settings. Always check each program’s current requirements before you start logging.
Does the supervising OT need to sign every entry?
Most programs want a licensed OT to verify the hours. This form has an initials column per row plus a full attestation and signature block at the bottom, so you can capture both.
Can I use this for volunteer or shadowing hours?
Yes. Observation, shadowing, and volunteer hours all fit — use the setting column to record where each session happened.
What if I observe in several different settings?
That’s ideal, and the form is built for it. Each row records its own setting, so one sheet can cover pediatrics, school-based, hand therapy, and more.
Can Terapiq track observation hours for my clinic?
Yes. If you host observers regularly, Terapiq logs hours digitally with automatic totals and supervisor sign-off — no loose paper to chase.
