Clinical Internship Schedule
The clinical internship will be completed Monday to Friday, during normal business hours. Students will be required to complete 20-25 hours per week depending on the schedule assigned to them. Evening and weekend schedules are not available. Students must follow their assigned internship schedule, not the AIMS Education class schedule, academic calendar, or the observed holidays and breaks listed above.
Program Start and End Dates
The start date and end date for each program may vary due to the length of the program. Holidays, school closings, and internship schedules may cause the program completion dates to vary as well. Please keep in mind that students enrolled in evening and weekend classes will typically take longer to complete their programs.
School Closures
The school reserves the right to close during weather emergencies or natural disasters. During these closures, the student will not be considered absent and instructors will cover the missed material in the following class. These types of closures may extend the length of the program. The AIMS website will provide updates regarding any school closings or delayed openings.
National and State Emergencies
National or state emergencies, including public health emergencies, weather-related emergencies, and natural disasters, may impact the continuity of your education. As a result of these emergency situations, it may be necessary to alter class schedules, change the method of instruction, cancel classes, or delay internships.
AIMS Education cannot guarantee when your clinical internship will start, but we will work with our clinical site partners to ensure all students are able to complete the valuable clinical experience. The institution will consider all options and methods to maintain the continuity of education, but we must follow the guidance provided by federal, state, and local authorities, as well as our accrediting agencies. Any gaps in your education may also result in delays to graduation.
