supervision of a practicing laboratory professional. In
this environment, the students work with actual patient
specimens learning to process and analyze specimens and
report results. Testing is usually performed in large
volume so learning how to organize and perform multiple
tasks within time limits is a skill that must be learned
in this setting. Practicums vary in length. Students are
usually assigned to more than one affiliate so that they
will experience working in different environments. Affiliates
include county and federal hospitals, private specialized
reference laboratories, private, non-profit hospitals
and clinics. Most CLS students will need to complete a
practicum in at least one affiliate outside the San Antonio
area. Housing may be provided in some areas of South Texas.
