TIME (Working while in the program)

The PTA Program is fast-paced, intense, and covers a large amount of content to prepare the student to become a licensed PTA. Classes are held Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. During the Clinical Education courses in the Summer and Spring semesters, the student will be in the clinic 40 hours per week. With the time requirement and effort needed to succeed, the student is not recommended to have a job during the program.
