The Credentialed Clinical Instructor Program Level 2 Course

The APTA Credentialed Clinical Instructor Program Level 2 course is designed for health care providers who work primarily in a clinical setting, have successfully completed the APTA CCIP Level 1 course, and want to further develop their clinical teaching skills and construct a clinical curriculum.
