Each AHS and Pre-DMS student will be assessed for their ability to accurately and successfully meet clinical competencies for each certificate they seek (Phlebotomy or Medical Assistant). Clinical assessments will be conducted by assigned clinical preceptors who will determine if the student demonstrates mastery of each competency listed for the certificate they seek. Students who fail to pass their assigned practicum/preceptorship will not be eligible to sit for the certification exam for that specific certification.
