Pierce College has partnered with Whatcom Community College (WCC) to provide Pierce County students a designed pathway into the WCC online/hybrid Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) program. Students can meet with a Pierce College advisor to develop an education plan to identify the necessary prerequisites for application to the PTA program. The program advisor will assist students with all steps of the application process. Students have the option to complete all prerequisites at Pierce College. Once students have been admitted to the PTA program, they will become a student at WCC, completing all coursework online and attending labs one weekend per month in Bellingham.
