Abstract
Objective : This study aims to identify the status of education in cognitive rehabilitation (CR) in occupational therapy departments of Korean universities/colleges and to analyze the educational needs for professional competencies.

Methods : This study was conducted by distributing a questionnaire to professors. The questionnaire extracted items related to professional competencies from the results of a previous Delphi study. A total of 39 respondents from 32 (51.6%) of 62 universities/colleges were analyzed. The questionnaire analysis was conducted using Excel 2010 and SPSS 18.0 to analyze the Borich requirements and the priority of education through the Locus for focus model.

Results : The priority of competency in CR was followed by ¡°clinical reasoning ability to explain cognitive problems from
the occupational performance perspective¡±, ¡°ability to manage insurance billing for CR¡±, ¡°ability to establish a CR plan based on outcome evaluation¡±, ¡°ability to perform occupation-oriented CR¡±, and ¡°ability to solve problems that occur during CR evaluation and intervention¡±. In the Locus for focus model, items such as occupation-based cognitive assessment, intervention, and skills for documentation were high priorities for education.

Conclusion : This study is expected to reflect educational competencies for CR and establish a plan for CR specialists through continuing education.
