A PROGRAM BUILT FOR YOU The Butler DMS Bridge program is uniquely tailored for new PAs who have graduated from an ARC-PA accredited program within the past six months and are interested in expanding their clinical knowledge, developing research skills, and stepping into a leadership role more quickly.
BUILD ON YOUR CLINICAL EXPERIENCE The Butler DMS Bridge program allows new PAs to earn a DMS in a shorter amount of time by incorporating their 36-credit hours of supervised clinical experiences. Because the program builds off these recently completed hours, it can be completed in less time and at a lower cost than waiting until later in your career.
JUMPSTART YOUR CAREER The process of becoming a certified and licensed PA, along with securing your first clinical position, can sometimes take months. As a student in the Butler DMS Program, you can effectively use this time to gain a new set of skills and leadership practices and become a more attractive candidate to your future employer.
