Evaluation
Throughout their fieldwork placement, students receive ongoing feedback from their preceptors regarding their performance through both regularly scheduled and spontaneous feedback sessions. Formal evaluation occurs both at midterm and at the end of the placement with the completion of the Competency Based Fieldwork Evaluation for Occupational Therapists (CBFE-OT).
Students are required to purchase the Competency Based Fieldwork Evaluation for Occupational Therapists (CBFE-OT) manual prior to their Introduction to Fieldwork placement. This manual should be brought to each placement to be used as a resource for both the preceptor and the student. An electronic copy of the CBFE-OT will be made available to students who have purchased the manual. Students will then forward the electronic copy of the CBFE-OT to their preceptor for use during the placement. Hard copies of the completed CBFE-OT with necessary signatures of preceptor and student must be submitted to the Fieldwork office after the placement is completed. Electronic copies cannot be submitted.
Students should make copies of completed CBFE-OT forms for their own personal use and reference. Students must ensure that all required preceptor and student signatures are present on pages 1 and 16 of the CBFE-OT form after the completion of each fieldwork placement before submission to the Fieldwork office.
