Students Thrive Through Hybrid-Learning
Jarrod was inspired by his mother's injury to become a physical therapist.
The hybrid-learning and competency-based model allowed for Jarrod to study from the comfort of his home and not worry about having to move to continue his education. Jarrod enjoys the on-campus program sessions, which allow him to build on the skills he has learned. “It’s a good experience. It’s intense, but it’s something we all look forward to,” he said.
