APTA Credentialed Clinical Instructor Program (CCIP) Courses:

COURSE DESCRIPTIONS:

CCIP Level 1 Overview

Open to physical therapists, physical therapist assistants and other health care professionals, this voluntary program is designed primarily for people interested in or involved with clinical education (clinical instructors [CIs], site coordinators of clinical education [SCCEs], academic directors/coordinators of clinical education [ACCEs/DCEs]) and is recognized by APTA as a Clinical Instructor (CI) Credentialing Program.

The Level 1 program addresses:

planning and preparing for physical therapy students during their clinical education experiences
developing learning experiences
supporting ongoing learning through questioning and effective feedback
developing skills of performance evaluation
identifying and managing students with exceptional situations
identifying legal implications for clinical educators, including issues presented by ADA legislation

CCIP Level 2 Overview

Credentialed Clinical Instructor Program Level 2 (CCIP 2) is the successor to APTA's former Advanced Credentialed Clinical Instructor Program (ACCIP). This voluntary program is designed for physical therapists, physical therapist assistants and other health care professionals who have successfully completed the APTA Credentialed Clinical Instructor Level 1 Program (CCIP 1), and want to further develop their clinical teaching skills and construct a clinical curriculum. The unique philosophy and design of CCIP 2 both applies and goes beyond the concepts of the structured learning environment of CCIP 1 to enable clinical educators to achieve the best outcomes for student learning.

CCIP Level 2 training:

discusses the benefits and key components of a clinical curriculum
advances clinical teaching concepts learned in the CCIP Level 1 course as applied to the novice-mastery clinical practice continuum
integrates teaching professionalism in a clinical curriculum promoting the guiding principles to achieve the Vision for the Physical Therapy Profession and Professional Core Values

outlines a clinical curriculum to provide key learning experiences critical to patient/client management in the student's practice upon graduation and licensure
