If they're willing to pay me for my education...
My question is this: What are the steps I should take to make myself THE perfect candidate for an assistanceship into a DPT program?
*I'm plugging away, part-time, at my grad work in exercise physiology. At the rate I'm moving I have about two years left. (If I could secure an assistanceship into the dpt program I'd jump on that immediately.)
*I hold a secondary ed teaching license and have a couple years of teaching experience
*I have a couple years experience as a strength and conditioning coach
*I'm working for a health club as a personal trainer (more than simple guided workouts, I'm developing comprehensive wellness plans)
*I'm developing general and specific wellness seminars, many of which will be conducted on a volunteer basis, free to the community
*I will be involved in community volunteer activities through the health club
*I will have at least one basic level ACSM certification by the end of the year and am studying and working my way toward their top cert (registered exercise physiologist)
*I plan to start clinical observation/shadowing/volunteer work (This is something I really could use some advice on.)
***Other advice?
Thanks in advance!!
