NLU PA Program — Didactic Year Handbook
This policy is reviewed at least annually and whenever ARC-PA Standards, NLU policies, applicable law, Program structure, or clinical education requirements change, or when assessment of grievance data identifies a need for revision. Revisions proceed through appropriate NLU and MSPAS governance processes, and the most current approved version supersedes previous versions.
