PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE PREREQUISITES
A student must earn a nal grade of “C” or better in the HIT and related courses to progress in the program.
Also, prior to professional practice, the student must have completed SCC’s health forms by the appropriate medical personnel. These completed forms must indicate that the student is capable of meeting the health requirements of the program. Students must also purchase liability insurance through SCC’s Business Of ce.
Due to limited professional practice slots, the program is limited on the number of students that can participate in these courses. If there are more students ready to enter professional practice than there are clinical slots, then selection will be based on objective criteria, including GPA and progression in the program.
