Office of Clinical Practice (OCP)

Welcome to the Office of Clinical Practice! The Office of Clinical Practice (OCP) aims to support students engaged in clinical practice/fieldwork through one of our many College of Education programs. Students participate in clinical practice/fieldwork at various levels, beginning with observation in Clinical I clinical practice/fieldwork all the way through to Clinical III clinical practice/fieldwork, which encompasses Student Teaching and Internship opportunities. 

One of the many ways OCP supports clinical practice/fieldwork is by developing and maintaining professional partnerships between the university and the schooling community, thereby allowing for enriching experiences that provide high-quality work-based learning and pedagogical understanding.  Clinical placements and support are made possible through collaborative efforts of school districts, charters, and private organizations, as directed by university guidelines.
