From Ideas to Impact

Tuesday June 23 – Wednesday June 24, 2026

OT Exchange is Australia’s largest clinical conference for occupational therapists, bringing together real-world knowledge and approaches that strengthen everyday practice. Designed for the whole profession, it’s the must-attend event to connect, be inspired, and shape the future of occupational therapy together.

Private Practice Day

Monday 22 June 2026 • Take your OT practice to the next level

This powerful one-day event is designed for occupational therapists working in private practice, from those thinking about taking the leap through to established business owners leading growing teams.

Delivered as a single stream of eight focused 45-minute sessions, the program allows time for deeper learning, reflection, and practical action. Each session is built to help you step out of day-to-day clinical work and into intentional business thinking.

You’ll hear from experienced industry speakers on the essentials of running a sustainable OT business, including insurance and risk, cyber safety, finance, marketing, and smart growth strategies. Every session is designed with real-world private practice in mind.
