I found the NewPossibilOTs course both informative and full of practical strategies when working with kids. It covered a wide range of topics and Lisa is clearly an expert in her field. I would strongly recommend doing this course for all OTs new to paediatrics and those wanting to refresh their skills and knowledge. Thanks Lisa!

What a jam-packed course! Working as a sole trader it was great to affirm that my practice was keeping up to date and in-line with a highly experienced professional and clinic based practice. Lisa was warm, engaging, highly knowledgeable and made the difficult task of completing PD with young kids easy.

I would highly recommend the New PossibiliOTs course! A very informative, right to the point, easy to comprehend course with a broad range of information! I really enjoyed this course. Very good overview of a Paediatric OT’s role. I learnt heaps and refreshed some old information I forgot I had.
