A quote from my daily calendar: “A good education can change
anyone, but a good teacher can change everything.”
That is so true! Can
you recall a favorite teacher in grade school or high school that inspired you
to learn? Or one that saw a talent in
you and helped you develop a skill? I
can recall a high school English teacher that made creative writing into a fascinating
challenge, and who instilled in me a love of writing.
The opportunity to teach is a precious gift, because even
though you give of yourself as you teach, it is very rewarding to see students
build skills, understand concepts and gain confidence.
So why don’t you consider working with students as a
clinical site instructor? Our schools
are struggling to find enough clinical sites to accommodate all the students
that they would like to accept into their Neurodiagnostic Technology
Programs. One of our Distance Education
programs turned away 25 potential students last year because they could not
connect with labs able to serve as clinical sites!
There is still a nation-wide shortage of skilled
technologists in our field. ASET is
committed to helping to fill this gap by supporting formal education. Please help us out and consider becoming a
clinical site!
Here is a link to the flyer and clinical site questionnaire
on the ASET website: Clinical Site Form
Please fill this out and send the form back to me. This will allow me to add your lab to the
ASET clinical site database. I do not
make this list or your contact information public. I will provide information about labs in a
specific area only to a Neurodiagnostic Program Director who is requesting help
to place a student. Since the distance
education programs must serve students enrolled anywhere in the USA the demand
for clinical sites can be anywhere!
If a student is a good match for your lab, the college will execute a contract with the legal department of your hospital. This step is necessary to ensure that the student and the hospital are both covered in case of injury, illness, etc.
If you have any questions about this please contact me
directly: faye@aset.org I would be pleased to chat with you as well,
just request that I call you!
