TYPE of WIL: MANDATORY PROFESSIONAL PRACTICUM/CLINICAL PLACEMENT

What is Mandatory Professional Practicum/Clinical Placement?

Involves work experience under the supervision of an experienced registered or licensed professional (e.g. preceptor) in any discipline that requires practice-based work experience for professional licensure or certification. Practica are generally unpaid and, as the work is done in a supervised setting, typically students do not have their own workload/caseload.
