You may attend on the first day of your clinical rotation or start your rotation and attend later in the rotation.  Your preceptor is aware of this requirement and expects you to attend.

The orientation content contains information vital to a successful professional career and is something most employers require every year.  No texting is allowed during this orientation, and you are expected to have cells phones turned off or at least set to vibrate quietly. The educational content of these sessions will give you the most current regulatory, legal, ethical, and professional requirements in our national health care system.

Physician students (MD/DO) are excluded from this requirement.
