Registering to practise as an occupational therapist in Canada includes a number of steps and can be a lengthy process. If you live in another country and plan to move to Canada to work and live here, some of the steps can begin before you leave your country. The most important step is to contact the regulatory organization in the province in Canada where you wish to work.
