Youth.Academy TO

The Youth.Academy TO is an initiative of the German Association of Orthopaedic Technology (BIV-OT) for the interdisciplinary development of young professionals in prosthetics and orthotics.

This project was initiated by trainees and vocational colleges from the orthopaedic technology sector (ALLOF e. V.), the conceptual partner is the German Association of Orthopaedic Technology (Bundesinnungsverband für Orthopädie-Technik).

In the years of OTWorld, the Youth.Academy TO enables a large number of participants – and a selected group in the interim years – to upskill adapted to their own level of knowledge and to network with one another. The initiative is becoming increasingly international.

Youth.Academy TO 2023

In the interim years, the young talent meeting is made possible for a selected group of participants. This year, the journey goes to Berlin: From October 26 to 27, the "Tag der Technischen Orthopädie" (TTO) will be attended, which takes place within the framework of the German Congress of Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery (DKOU).

Youth.Academy TO 2022

The Youth.Academy TO is now traditionally part of OTWorld. In 2022, it took place for the fifth time at the world's largest industry meeting. On the two event days young professionals from the fields of prosthetics, orthotics, orthopaedic footwear technology, healthcare supply retail, medicine and physiotherapy came together at OTWorld to learn about the latest developments and trends, share their experiences, and network with each other.
