Students begin with general education classes before progressing to PTA-specific topics such as Functional Anatomy, Exercise and Mobility, Musculoskeletal Concepts, Neuromuscular Concepts, and advanced plan-of-care implementation. Clinical practicums in area hospitals or clinics provide valuable real-world training during the final semesters. Graduates are eligible to sit for the national licensure exam upon completion.
