Community Partners in PTA Education
We are fortunate to have the support of many clinical partners who volunteer to provide clinical instruction for our students. The PTA program is committed to expanding clinical education opportunities for PTA students and PT/PTAs alike. Center Coordinators of Clinical Education and PT/PTAs who would like to become a clinical education site are encouraged to contact Beth Ann Thorpe, thorpeb@lanecc.edu, Academic Coordinator of Clinical Education.
