Herzing University – Brookfield PTA Program Overview

Herzing University’s Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) program at the Brookfield campus offers a comprehensive, hands-on pathway for those looking to enter this growing healthcare field. The Associate of Science/Applied Science in Physical Therapist Assistant is a 73-credit degree designed to be completed in about 16 months. Students first complete general education courses—many available online—before moving into core PTA classes that cover patient care, therapeutic modalities, kinesiology, orthopedic and neurological patient care, and more.
The curriculum emphasizes real-world learning through four integrated clinical experiences plus a practicum prep course before full-time clinical placements. This strong focus on practical skills ensures graduates are well-prepared for Florida’s National Licensing Examination for PTAs. Herzing also supports students with flexible schedules ideal for working adults or non-traditional learners; extensive virtual services like tutoring and advising; and lifelong career coaching even after graduation.

Unique to Herzing is its rolling admissions process—there’s no waitlist—and small class sizes (24 students per start), fostering personalized attention from faculty such as Program Director Amy Vernon, DPT. Tuition rates vary but financial aid options are available.

Located just outside Milwaukee in Brookfield—a hub of medical facilities—the campus provides access to diverse clinical sites throughout southeast Wisconsin. With demand high across hospitals, clinics, schools and sports settings, Herzing’s PTA graduates find themselves ready to launch rewarding careers making an impact on patients’ mobility and quality of life.
