--- Round 0 ---
[R0.1] Accreditation & Compliance Officer (speak, public): To ensure we're on the same page regarding the proposed Medical Assistant certificate program with paid externships, can we start by discussing the program's design and how it aligns with our accreditation requirements?
[R0.2] Workforce Program Director (Allied Health) (speak, public): Our proposed Medical Assistant certificate program is designed to cover 12 key competencies aligned with the NHA CCMA exam. We had a successful pilot with 48 learners and an 83% completion rate. The program includes a cohort coaching model with a 1:25 coach-to-learner ratio and requires students to complete at least 2 competencies per month to stay on track. Can you help me understand the specific accreditation requirements we need to meet for this program?
[R0.3] Finance & Employer Partnerships Manager (speak, private to=Workforce Program Director (Allied Health)): The tuition pricing structure for this program is $1,950 per learner, with payments split into two installments. We also have a restricted grant condition where we've received $120,000 in state funding, requiring us to serve at least 60 learners. Invoices will be paid by the partner net 45 days. I'd like to understand more about the operational costs and support intensity for this program, as it will help me assess financial sustainability. Can you share more details about the resources required to maintain the 1:25 coach-to-learner ratio and the cohort coaching model?

--- Round 1 ---
[R1.1] Accreditation & Compliance Officer (speak, public): For the Medical Assistant certificate program, we'll need to ensure compliance with our state's CTE credit hour equivalency rule, which is 1 credit = 45 contact hours. Additionally, for the externship component, we'll need to adhere to the supervision requirement of 1 preceptor per 2 learners. Online assessments will also require multi-factor authentication for identity verification. Can you share more details on the program's credit structure and how you plan to manage the externship supervision?
[R1.2] Workforce Program Director (Allied Health) (speak, public): To address the accreditation requirements, we plan to structure the program to meet the 1 credit = 45 contact hour equivalency rule, ensuring our curriculum is properly aligned. For the externship supervision, we intend to follow the 1 preceptor per 2 learners requirement. We'll need to coordinate with our hospital partner to ensure they can provide the necessary preceptors. Regarding the credit structure, we're proposing a total of 4 credits for the program, which includes both theoretical and clinical components. I'd like to confirm if this meets the state's CTE requirements.
