Before embarking on any professional or academic activity, it is important to understand the background, knowledge, and experience you bring to it. You might ask yourself, What do I already know? What do I need to know? And what do I want to know? This critical self-reflection is especially important for developing clinical skills, such as those for advanced practice nursing. 

The PRAC 6635 Clinical Skills List and PRAC 6635 Clinical Skills Self-Assessment Form, provided in the Learning Resources, can be used to celebrate your progress throughout your practicum and identify skills gaps.
