Standard 2: Clinical Partnership & Practice

The clinical practice in Puerto Rico is regulated by Puerto Rico Department of Education’s laws about clinical practice (see 2.1.1- CC 2- 2012-2013: Public policy about the organization and regulation of clinical practice centers) and through dispositions in Law 129 of 2016 about Clinical Experiences (see 2.1.2 Law 129) . The public policies provide the requisites for the selection of clinical centers, cooperative teacher and director, and the roles of each one. Cooperative Teachers (CT) must have a clinical practice certification that is reviewed every three years. The UPRP EPP offers both the certification course (45 hours) and the recertification course (15 hours) to teachers from partner schools and teachers from other universities. Certification Course for new highly qualified CT as well as recertification for teachers is offered by EPP Director and Clinical Practice Supervisors (see 2.1. 3 Coop Teacher Course Syllabus).
