      "description": "Work experience in cooperation with clinical agencies. Provides expanded learning opportunities directly related to the student's clinical experience. Course requires 54 clinical hours. The Nursing program developed this course in which previously learned nursing theory and clinical skills are applied because a student must have acquired clinical competence in these skills. A list of skills competencies is provided to the clinical agency (work-study site). No new skills may be taught during this course and the hours of instruction for the course follow the formula per CCR section 1426(g)(2). In this course, the faculty of record is available and is responsible for ongoing communication with students and agency and monitoring of student progress. The Nursing program develops an agreement with a clinical agency with which it has a contract, to provide a work-study course for which a student receives academic credit. Compensation of the student by the practice site is encouraged. The clinical agency agrees to the objectives of the course and provides mentors or preceptors for direct supervision of students. The instructor and agency mentors meet at regular intervals to discuss student progress and jointly share in the evaluation of the student. The course instructor has the final responsibility to evaluate and grade students and their mastery of the course objectives.",
