The Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education has reaccredited the physical therapist assistant (PTA) education program at Wor-Wic Community College for a period of 10 years.
 
The reaccreditation follows a study and on-site review of the program to ensure that it meets or exceeds standards and criteria for educational quality in PTA curriculum and prepares students to work successfully in the profession upon graduation.
 
“The reaffirmation of accreditation for Wor-Wic’s physical therapist assistant program reflects our commitment to program excellence on behalf of our students and the community they will serve upon graduation,” said Dr. William J. Bails, department head and associate professor.
