Ohio Dominican University's Physician Assistant Program recognizes our responsibility to state the outcomes of our goals to?prospective and enrolled students. During the first 15 months of the program, students spend their time in the classroom and lab, in what's known as the "didactic" phase. Students are taught by full-time, clinically experienced PA faculty as well as adjunct professors and guest lecturers from multiple disciplines.??

The following 12 months are spent in various clinical sites using a medical apprenticeship model. Near the end of the clinical phase, students?participate in an intensive board review course to prepare for the Physician Assistant National Certifying Examination (PANCE) and clinical practice.
