Program Goals and Outcomes
The goals and learning outcomes for the Diagnostic Medical Sonography program are divided into the following categories:
- Patient Care (Affective)
- Professional Development (Behavioral)
- Clinical Proficiency (Cognitive)
At a minimum, students will be evaluated in the ABCs – affective, behavioral and cognitive skills – on a quarterly basis. In addition, these domains will be evaluated in a comprehensive professional growth evaluation. The analysis, performed by the clinical staff, will be cumulative and representative of all cohorts. A benchmark of 90 (A-) will be expected in each of the categories.
