Directions for Prerequisite Document Uploads
Click on the tile for field work and clinical practice.
Click on one of the courses to view the required documents, which include a TB test and CTC clearance.
As you may know, both documents are required in order to meet the prerequisites for field work. You only need to upload each document once. It will apply to each course that requires it.
Click on the upload button for and select your file from the file browser. Please note that only PDF documents are allowed.
Adjust the expiration date. For TB skin/blood/risk assessment test, expiration date is four (4) years from test date. For x-ray, expiration date is eight (8) years from test date. For the CTC Clearance, the expiration date is indicated on the document.
Repeat the process for the second document or return at a later session to upload the next document.
Please click submit, and our team will be notified to review your documents.
Notifications
You will receive an email notification when your documents have been approved. When both documents are approved, you will receive the official letter to take to your school site for field work placement. Thank you! Good luck with your field work this semester!

Please allow one week for course adds and drops to become active in MyCED.
Reporting Clinical Practice Hours in MyCED
If your supervisor is not on the list, select "Other". This will prompt two new fields to appear where you can enter your supervisor's name and email.
In the Activity Log tab, enter the Activity Details per the regular process, and click Save.
After clicking Save, a "Send Mail" button will send an email to the Demonstration Teacher/Site Supervisor indicated on the Activity Details. The system will not automatically send out the approval emails. This process must be initiated by the student when you are ready to have logs approved.
Important to Note: This email will send all pending activity logs for approval, not just the one selected. If the Demonstration Teacher/Site Supervisor works with multiple students, the link will provide access to those students' logs too. The Demonstration Teacher/Site Supervisor only needs the email once. The link will be the same when more activity logs are added.
What happens if my Demonstration Teacher/Site Supervisor does not get the email or specific logs? Check if the email is typed correctly. Each log is independent, so if the email is not typed correctly on one of the Activity Log Details, it will not appear on the list. Click edit to correct the email and then click the Send Mail button again.
