Clinical Experience Calendars & Resources

All physical therapy education programs include clinical experience (CE). However, timeframes, format (part-time v full-time), length of CE, student level of didactic preparation, and student performance expectations all vary by program. This page provides program-specific clinical experience information including full-time CE calendars. It also includes shared documents and resources that apply to 3RAC programs.
