Cohort 2024 ended their didactic year with a wonderful celebration. We were proud to present all 33 students in the cohort with their white coats and recite with them the PA oath as they prepared to enter the clinical phase of their education.  These students completed a very rigorous didactic curriculum and finished the fall semester with a full 17 credit hours. Included in this fall semester is their Procedures course where they learned skills such as suturing, intubation, central line placement, casting/splinting, and a FAST exam with point-of-care ultrasound. We are so proud of their accomplishments over the course of their didactic education and are excited for the year ahead as they begin their clinical rotations!
