This practicum is the first in a three-course sequence. In this foundational practicum, students gain practical general training and integrate learning from foundation Clinical Leadership and Management courses in a healthcare setting context. Through their experiences in a healthcare work environment and interaction with healthcare and administrative professionals, students further develop their fundamental knowledge and skills in areas of professionalism, critical thinking, cultural humility, and inter-professional practice-essential elements for collaborative leadership and the development of the professional 'self'. Students will apply for the practicum course and work with faculty and the practicum coordinator to secure a clinical leadership and management focused placement in a healthcare setting that is appropriate for the course and student learning goals. Students develop a site-specific individualized learning plan and class seminars assist students with integrating their workplace experiences with foundational coursework as a cohort. This course includes specified hours per semester of seminar and experiential learning.
