Information for CIs and CCCEs: Hello Clinical Educators! This page is designed to give you easy access to forms and information that will be helpful to you as you work with our PTA students in your facilities. We are so happy to partner with you to provide our students opportunities to practice their knowledge and skills in real clinical situations. Because of your commitment, our clinical education program is very strong.

Our clinical education program at UMPI consists of three separate experiences. One 3 week experience in the second PTA technical semester (Fall) and two 7 week experiences in the third and last PTA technical semester (Spring).

If you cannot find something that you need, please contact us at UMPI PTA. Thank you for your support of our PTA program!
