UCPAP Class of 2015 Begin Clinical Phase

The University of Charleston PA Class of 2015 began clinical rotations April 28, 2014. The class has completed two clinical rotations and is preparing to start the third. Each clinical rotation is 4 weeks in duration and occurs in sites throughout the state. Feedback from clinical site instructors regarding the UCPA students has been extremely positive, and the UCPAP is so very proud of the performance of this first class!

Prior to starting clinical rotations, the UCPAP faculty, staff, and students celebrated the completion of the didactic phase with a white coat ceremony. Students were "coated" by their UCPAP faculty mentor, signifying their preparedness for the clinical phase. Students wear their white coats emblazoned with the UCPA logo while training at clinical rotation sites.
