Frequently Asked Questions

Do my students need a specific amount of hours?

While we do need to keep an eye on hours in general, especially in their last semester, we always stress to the students that they should be focusing on experiences to help prepare them after graduation and not on clockhours.  There’s so much to be learned, like scheduling or billing, that doesn’t involve clockhours at all.  Likewise, if a student obtains the 375 hours they need for ASHA certification, they are still expected to continue the learning process and work their established schedule until the end of the semester.
