When Online Learning Includes Real-World Practice

While many Pitt Online programs are offered 100% online, some fields—especially those tied to professional licensure—require hands-on, in-person learning to meet state and national standards. These real-world sessions are critical to ensuring students:

• Meet clinical competency and licensure requirements
• Gain confidence in applying skills in patient or client settings
• Learn in collaboration with faculty and peers in a supervised environment

If your program includes in-person components, we'll provide all scheduling and location details well in advance—so you can plan ahead with confidence. Look for the "Hybrid" label on program pages where applicable.
