The British Association and College of Occupational Therapists (BAOT/COT) produces two monthly publications for our 28,500 members, the British Journal of Occupational Therapy (BJOT) and Occupational Therapy News (OTN). They both contain a section called CPD Events (Continuing Professional Development) that provides information on courses, events, training days and conferences that are relevant for occupational therapists throughout the UK.

Companies or individuals can advertise a range of events in the CPD Events section, which will appear in both BJOT and OTN and also online on the College's interactive Learning Opportunities Database (iLOD) as part of the price. The iLOD is a web-based resource available in the member-only area to all BAOT members to aid their continuing professional development. BAOT members will be able to view the details of their event on iLOD up until the day of the event after which it will automatically be removed.

The CPD Events section is run in date order and is charged at a fee of £100 (including VAT) per entry per month

Both publications are delivered directly to the home addresses of members of the British Association of Occupational Therapists. Members work in a wide range of sectors, including NHS trusts, social care, private practice and higher education. Circulation for each publication is currently running at 25,000 and the iLOD averages 10,000 views per month.
