Outcome Assessment Strategies
The end of the term evaluation process will involve a written evaluation and a conference with the student, the onsite supervisor and the PCC assigned personnel. The onsite supervisor will propose a grade of a pass/ no pass based on the student’s progress toward completion of the objectives as described in the “Objectives for Practicum Placement” contract.
Course Content (Themes, Concepts, Issues and Skills)
The student will complete 100% of their activities at the field placement site. Each site is pre-approved by the Alcohol and Drug Counselor Department. Each site will provide an onsite supervisor who will oversee the day to day activities of the student. PCC personnel (instructor of record or an assigned academic professional) will complete an “Objectives for Practicum Placement” contract at the start of each practicum and an end of the term evaluation process that includes the student and their onsite supervisor.
