A summative evaluation of your level of proficiency in the selected competency categories will be forwarded, from the teaching faculty, to Student Affairs to be placed in each student's file. Although there will be no numerical grading of your proficiency in the competency categories of healthcare team, human relationships and communications, and professionalism, the teaching faculty will provide formative and summative assessment in each of those areas for each student.

Unsatisfactory assessment in the core discipline competency and/or the problem solving competency, may lead to remediation if so determined by the course teaching faculty. Unsatisfactory performance in the competencies of health care team, human relationships and communications, and/or professionalism may have a negative impact on a student's final grade (i.e., loss of half of a letter grade). Unprofessional behavior will automatically be documented and the Academic Status Committee will notified.

The final course grades will be assessed based upon the following standards:
