Prerequisite: Students must achieve a passing grade in all ATC-CM Core and Program courses. The practicum experience is the final course of the ATC-CM program. The practicum experience provides the student an avenue to demonstrate a higher level of case management knowledge and professional development. The on-site practicum allows students who are new to case management an opportunity to practice in a preceptor environment and partnership with a practicing Case Manager in the health care setting and a series of lectures. The practicum experience is also designed to integrate theory in a reality context of the case management role accomplished through a series of live lectures with case managers from a variety of clinical practice settings. There will be discussion of issues and trends with relevance to particular areas of case management. The series prepares the learner with essential knowledge needed to take one of the national case management certification exams. Three contact hours (distance learning).
