PTA Public Comment Policy

The Physical Therapist Assistant Program at Spokane Falls Community College engages in continuous and systematic evaluation and improvement. We welcome your comments, suggestions, ideas, and constructive criticism as part of that process. The Grievance/Due Process policies (SFCC Catalog and Class Schedule) provide a voice for current and prospective students, employees, and other affiliated persons. However, individuals in the community who do not have a formal affiliation with this institution or program are also welcome to provide comments according to the following policy:

1. This process is only for comments or concerns that cannot be addressed by existing grievance/due process procedures described in the SFCC catalog, Class Schedule or the PTA Program Handbook.
2. Comments must be provided in writing and signed by the author. Anonymous submissions will not be acknowledged, nor will written comments provided on behalf of an anonymous source.
3. Comments must be submitted to the Program Director via e-mail or address: Marie.Cole@spokanefalls.edu
