"Each Board shall require for eligibility for certification as a diplomat a minimum
of two academic years of postgraduate study in recognized institutions, or two calendar
years of advanced study if the programs involve hospital internships and

to be expected that approximately fifty percent of the time for each program will be
devoted to academic pursuits, formal course work, seminars etc., while the remaining fifty
percent is devoted to clinical training and experience. Thus, is a forty hour week the
time overall in the two-year programs is divided so that twenty hours area academic and
twenty hours are clinical experience. |
