About The OT Index
The ranking engine for occupational therapy.
The OT Index exists because the OT field has expensive decisions and fragmented information. The site makes the best available data clear enough to act on.

Thesis
Own the decision layer of occupational therapy.
News is useful when it changes a decision. The OT Index publishes rankings, data guides, and analysis that help people choose programs, jobs, cities, specialties, employers, and tools.
The long-term opportunity is to become the structured reference for the OT market: school profiles, career benchmarks, city rankings, employer pages, specialty indexes, CEU/tool reviews, and practitioner-submitted compensation data.
Operating principles
What readers can expect
The OT Index is rigorous, calm, and useful. Readers can see what is ranked, why it is ranked that way, and what to do next.
Rankings as a database
Structured profiles make schools, states, metros, employers, specialties, and tools easier to compare.
Career utility
The OT Index helps readers choose programs, compare jobs, negotiate pay, and move with better context.
Editorial restraint
Avoid popularity contests. Rank by decision value: outcome, cost, access, quality, demand, and fit.
