How the Program Works
This blended program combines online coursework with hands-on and guided learning experiences. You will complete:
Online coursework
Mentoring support
Clinical experience
Individual and group knowledge reinforcement sessions
The program typically takes 3–4 months to complete, depending on your pace through the online didactic portion.
