This Virtual Practicum Schedule allows preceptors and students to adapt student practicum activities, minimizing disruption to student progress during crisis situations that limit in-person contact. Practicum activities can be adapted for completion in a virtual/remote environment. Activities should be completed remotely by the student, through a combination of asynchronous and synchronous time. Video or phone conferences totaling at least 1 hour per week (synchronous time) between student and preceptor should be scheduled to establish objectives for the week, monitor progress, and summarize activities each week.
