October 13, 2017
1:30-5:00pm

38. That the following be adopted:
That the following definition of integrated clinical education (ICE) be adopted as the definition for use within the profession:
Integrated clinical education is a curriculum design model whereby clinical education experiences are purposively organized within a curriculum. In physical therapist education, these experiences are obtained through the exploration of authentic physical therapist roles, responsibilities and values that occur prior to the terminal full time clinical education experience.
Integrated experiences are coordinated by the academic program and are driven by learning objectives that are synchronous with didactic content delivery across the curricular continuum. These experiences allow students to attain professional behaviors, knowledge and/or skills within a variety of environments. The supervised experiences also allow for exposure and acquisition across all domains of learning and include student performance assessment.
For integrated clinical education experiences to qualify towards the minimum number of full-time clinical education weeks required by accreditation (CAPTE) standards, it must be full time and supervised by a physical therapist within a physical therapy workplace environment or practice setting.

That the 8 parameters presented as baseline expectations for integrated clinical education be adopted and disseminated for use by physical therapist educational programs.
These include:
1. Integrated clinical education may occur in any academic term prior to the completion of the didactic coursework leading to the completion of a terminal full time clinical education experience.
2. Integrated clinical education experiences will have specific desired outcomes that correspond to course and/or programmatic objectives.
3. Integrated clinical education experiences may be represented as a component of a didactic course or a standalone course that occurs in a synchronous fashion with other didactic coursework.
4. Integrated clinical education experience time frames are developed by the academic program based upon the course and/or programmatic objectives. Integrated clinical education may include full time and/or part time experiences.
5. Integrated clinical education experiences may occur in a variety of learning environments including campus or community based clinical or non-clinical settings, based upon the course and/or programmatic objectives. Integrated full time clinical education experiences that qualify for a program’s minimum number of clinical education weeks shall be completed in a physical therapy workplace environment or practice setting.
6. Integrated clinical education experiences shall include student assessments that are designed to link to the course or program objectives with expected student progression in professional behaviors, clinical knowledge, and/or skills.  
7. Integrated clinical education experiences are coordinated by a faculty member of the academic program, in partnership with a coordinator from the clinical education site.
8. Integrated clinical education experiences are typically supervised by a course instructor and a preceptor. The preceptor may be an academic course faculty member, a clinical instructor, or other healthcare professional at the site the student is engaged in the experience, depending upon the course and/or programmatic objectives. Integrated full time clinical education experiences that qualify for a program’s minimum number of clinical education weeks shall be supervised by a licensed physical therapist.
