Agreements

BCC’s PTA Program is committed to academic excellence. The faculty realize
that learning is a lifelong process, that can be developed through academic
theory, clinical application and life experiences. They believe that
the responsibility for knowledge acquisition and retention rests with
the students. Students are encouraged to utilize all available resources
to enhance the learning process. The faculty recognize that each student
brings a unique set of strengths and weaknesses to the program. To facilitate
learning for all students, the curriculum design has both didactic and
clinical components and uses multiple teaching modalities. Besides traditional
teaching methods, case scenarios, service learning, computer enhanced
classes and self-assessment are used to facilitate the learning process.
