In accordance with the college’s mission, Professional Development courses are designed to cultivate the doctoral students as the future healers, teachers, and leaders in Oriental Medicine. The theme of professional development is integrated throughout the curriculum.

The evolution of high standards within medical leadership demands a particular skill set.  Individual standards have been covered in other courses. Doctoral medical leadership is a lifelong and ongoing, developmental process.  This process begins internally and is then projected outwards locally, nationally, and globally.

This course will cover strategic planning for professional growth through discussion of current issues.  Healthcare topics, public policy issues, both global and domestic, will be addressed. Community and cultural dynamics will be addressed to build the competencies of doctoral students in terms of collaboration, leadership skills, and an ability to consult with a diverse array of healthcare professionals and patients.

The educational objectives of this course are for doctoral students to reinforce the following competencies (2016 Revision):

• EDUCATE others in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (AOM)

• APPLY the knowledge and skills related to biomedical assessment

• ANALYZE and EMPLOY research findings for clinical use

• COMBINE and SYNTHESIZE concepts and ideas for professional growth

Students must be on time and not leave before the end of class meeting time. Students are responsible for all material presented in class as well as the reading assignments.

Out-of-Class Work
To successfully complete the program, students need to plan studying a minimum of 2 hours out-of-class for each academic in-class hour; and half an hour out-of-class for each hour of clinical training.

• Reading assignments
• Case review

Professionalism and Full and Prompt Attendance:  To pass any course (separate from academic performance) all students must meet requirements for professionalism in coursework.

Students may be absent up to 8 days (no more than 4 consecutive days) per year (12-month period from start date).  Students are required to inform the DAOM Office of forthcoming absences prior to the occurrence. If a student exceeds 16 days of absence in the program, the student will be automatically withdrawn. The decision is final and cannot be appealed.

In addition, all clinical course products and clinical training hours must be completed to pass the clinical courses.  If a student accumulates more than four (4) consecutive absences due to an extenuating circumstance such as an illness or emergency, he or she must submit an appeal with supporting documentation of the circumstance to the Doctoral Committee for review.  Upon approval, the student will be considered to be meeting SAP.

Students are required to attend the proposal and final capstone presentations. If a student misses the proposal or the final capstone presentation, he or she will receive a “Fail” for the course and will be required to complete the presentation at the next scheduled date.

Please visit https://www.emperors.edu/publications/ for more details.

A student is tardy if they arrive more than 30 minutes late to class.  Three (3) tardy per quarter equals 1 absence. If a student misses more than half of a class, or leaves early, will count as an absence.

A student enrolled in a course is responsible for all course assignments or requirements that are due regardless of whether the student is present or absent from the scheduled course.  Students are responsible for being aware of their own attendance for each course in which they are enrolled in order not to exceed the maximum absences allowed.
