Summative

Catalog description

The purpose of the summative evaluation is to ascertain the student’s readiness to graduate based on a review of the entire graduate student career. The course will allow the student to present a portfolio to the Promotion/Retention/ Disciplinary committee that consists of a number of items to support the student’s application for graduation. In addition to the academic year grades, professional evaluations, clinical year grades and preceptor evaluations, there will be assignments specific to the summative evaluation to be completed during the course that will provide a comprehensive review of the student’s ability to function as a successful graduate physician assistant.
