The status of experiential learning among graduate programs in health administration.
Today's programs in health administration are faced with dramatic changes both from within the university and from the field of practice. These changes include new criteria for accreditation by ACEHSA, recent volatility in the market-place for new graduates, charges of separateness between university programs and the field of practice, and tightening of university budgets. One issue affected by these changes is the role and value of experiential learning in the graduate curriculum. This article reports on a survey of AUPHA member programs regarding the status of experiential learning in their programs.
