Methods for Education Delivery

USAHS has sufficient facilities and the necessary equipment to support the achievement of the educational objectives of all the courses and educational programs in which students are enrolled. USAHS offers a variety of formats in educational delivery.

Course Formats

Lecture/Didactic Coursework: Courses that focus mainly on foundational, theoretical, and required knowledge are considered didactic in nature. These are lecture courses with no laboratory component. In both Residential and Flex programs, lecture courses all utilize a repository of digital content that constitutes the body of didactic material. Content and active learning activities, which include collaborative group work, interactive media, and discussion forums, may be delivered face-to-face or online via the learning management system.

Seminar/Online: The most up-to-date seminar calendar is available under Continuing Education on the University’s website, www.usa.edu. Students will be able to see when and where seminars are being provided. After attending the seminar, students will need to complete the online course that corresponds with the seminar they attended.

Lecture/Laboratory Coursework: Lecture/lab courses combine online materials and interaction with scheduled hands-on lab sessions. Laboratory sessions are held on campus at specified times and incorporate experiential learning experiences. These are designed to deepen understanding of concepts, connect theory to practice, develop critical thinking skills, and practice critical communication and treatment skills.

Simulation: Simulation is a key experiential learning methodology and is integrated across the curriculum to reinforce clinical and interprofessional skill development, as well as provide a bridge from the classroom to fieldwork and internship settings. Simulation activities occur in laboratory sessions or are arranged by faculty in one of the Centers for Innovative Clinical Practice. Simulation exercises and assignments engage students in settings that simulate different types of actual situations and are thus a bridge between classroom learning and real-life clinical experience.

Interprofessional Coursework: Students in all programs take some courses that are specifically designated as interprofessional courses. In these courses, students learn with, for, and about other professions and through a variety of active and innovative learning activities, develop interprofessional education (IPE) core competencies in the domains of values and ethics, roles/responsibilities, communication, and teamwork.

Immersion or Residency: Some programs offer required or optional residencies or immersion experiences where students will attend a face-to-face learning event, which can consist of experiences such as colloquia or laboratory exercises.

Clinical Education: Some programs require students to spend a designated number of hours, days, or weeks practicing in a setting under the supervision of a certified and/or licensed (healthcare) practitioner. Depending on the program, the title of these experiences can vary. For example, in occupational therapy these courses are called fieldwork, in physical therapy they are called clinical experiences, in speech-language pathology they are called clinical practicums, and in nursing they are practicums.

Course Delivery

Face-to-Face (Traditional) Delivery: These courses are delivered exclusively in a face-to-face (not online) format in a classroom or laboratory.

Online Delivery: These courses are delivered purely online using a combination of synchronous and asynchronous methods. Students complete learning activities and engage in faculty and peer interactions on a weekly schedule, and in some cases may have synchronous scheduled videoconference meetings. Some online courses may offer students the opportunity to work at their own pace and interact only with the assigned faculty member. All assignments within the online course have specific due dates. In most cases, assignments are graded within 48 hours, but lengthier assignments may take up to seven days to grade. Students are notified in advance when the assignment/project may take more than seven days to grade.

Blended Delivery: These courses are delivered through a combination of online and face-to-face formats.

All course instruction is provided in English.

Commuter Alternatives Program (CAP)

USAHS provides its students, staff, and faculty with options to enhance their experiences on campus. As a Certified B Corp institution, USAHS is conscious of its carbon footprint and the impact the University has on the local environment. In an effort to balance both, the University offers the Commuter Alternatives Program (CAP). 

Through CAP, the University will provide participants with incentives for carpooling, bicycling, walking, or taking public transportation to and from campus.

Students, faculty, and staff can participate in one of the following options. Registration in the program is required each term.

1. Carpooling: Two or more participants who wish to ride together may enroll in CAP under the carpool option. Participants who choose this option each receive an Amazon gift card each term and one CAP Parking Permit hang tag to be shared among the carpool team members. Carpool teams must register together and complete the CAP form with the carpool box checked. Participants who choose to sign up for this option for the first time are required to turn in the previously issued USAHS Student or Staff/Faculty parking permit at the time of registration. Participants who are signed up under this option are required to reenroll for each new term. All CAP hangtags/badges should be returned at the end of the term.
2. Bike, Public Transportation, or Walk: Participants who rely on alternate methods of transportation may enroll in CAP under the Bike, Public Transportation, or Walk option. Participants who choose this option also receive an Amazon gift card each term but are not issued a parking permit to park on campus. Participants who enroll in this option for the first time are required to turn in the previously issued USAHS Student or Staff/Faculty parking permit at the time of registration. Participants who were enrolled in the Bike, Public Transportation or Walk option during the previous term are required to re-enroll for each new term.

Due to demand, CAP Permits are limited and are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. CAP registration for incoming students takes place during the first two weeks of the term. CAP enrollment and reenrollment for returning students takes place before the term commences. Registration for both groups occurs online.

Please note, at most campuses, local ordinances restrict off-campus parking on local city streets, at local businesses, and in residential neighborhoods. 

For questions about the CAP, contact the campus facilities manager. 

Parking

The University is an independent organization, and as such, the property and parking lots are private property. The University has the right to regulate the use of motor vehicles on its property for the good and safety of everyone. Carpooling is strongly encouraged whenever possible.

Depending on the campus, cars must have a University parking decal or hanging tag, and it must be displayed at all times. This decal/tag is valid while a student is enrolled at the University. The decal/tag must be used only by the student to whom it was issued. The Miami campus uses multitenant garages; therefore, badges are used.

As appropriate to each campus, students are required to permanently affix the decal to the back window on the driver’s side of the vehicle; motorcycle decals must be permanently affixed to the front screen and hanging tags must be hung from the rearview mirror on the windshield. If a valid decal is not displayed, the automobile is subject to ticketing, booting, or towing, and any subsequent charges are the student’s responsibility.

Students must provide a copy of their vehicle registration as part of the new student registration and when purchasing a replacement decal. Students are responsible for updating the University by completing the appropriate campus parking form found at the MyUSA portal, Student Services tab, Parking page whenever any changes occur to their vehicle type or license tag.

The University is not liable for theft or damage to any vehicle, including student vehicles. University staff and personnel make every effort to ensure student safety whenever possible. Reports of damage to vehicles should be filed with local authorities and a copy of the report provided to the Student Services department.

Vehicles parked in violation of University or garage regulations are subject to being booted or towed without notice. The student is required to pay the boot fee or to contact the towing company to make arrangements for retrieving their vehicle and paying the towing fee.

In order to uphold the USAHS guiding principle of being good stewards of the environment, and to prioritize available parking, priority access is given to students who enroll in one of the Commuter Alternatives Program (CAP) carpooling options, such as carpool with two or more participants.
