We use a precepted model for clinical experience, and we have a dedicated team to help you find clinical placement as near to you as possible.
- Clinicals. Herzing University partners with several institutions in Ohio as available sites for clinicals. Clinical site availability is subject to change, and we cannot guarantee your placement at any given institution prior to enrollment.
