Our Story
After becoming AMPS certified early in my career, I saw firsthand the impact this assessment had on occupational therapy practice. When opportunities to obtain AMPS certification became limited, many clinicians—including colleagues I worked alongside—could no longer access this important evidence-based assessment.
CITS was founded to preserve and expand access to AMPS through a modern, clinician-focused platform while maintaining the scientific rigor and integrity that have made it one of occupational therapy's most respected standardized assessments.
Our Commitment
CITS provides occupational therapists with:
- Evidence-based online training
- Standardized rater calibration
- Secure cloud-based administration and scoring
- Ongoing support for clinicians worldwide
Everything we build is designed to strengthen occupation-centered practice and improve patient care worldwide.
