Roane State Community College

The Physical Therapist Assistant Program at Roane State Community College engages in continuous and systematic evaluation and improvement. The Grievance/Due Process policies of the College provide a voice for current and prospective students, employees, clinical faculty and other affiliated persons.

These processes are described in the Roane State College Catalog, the Roane State PTA Program Handbook, and the Roane State PTA Clinical Education Handbook.
