This practicum course will utilize a simulated patient model to provide students with the opportunity to demonstrate and assess their skill levels in competencies necessary for the practice of genetic counseling. Students will participate in prepared role-playing exercises, followed by class discussion and feedback. The course structure will allow students to demonstrate competence in key skills, assess their own strengths and weaknesses and those of their peers, and formulate a plan for addressing areas needing improvement.
