Practicum/Field Experience : Graduate Adapted PE

 There are a variety of excellent practicum/field experiences associated with Brockport's program. Some are offered on campus and others are offered off campus in both inclusive settings and special settings. They provide opportunities for teaching, consultation, and research.

The on campus field experiences consist of a Swim N'Gym program in which schools in the area bus participating youngsters to Brockport on Friday mornings for the program. Camp Abilities, is a one-week summer sports camp offered for children who are visually impaired, blind or deafblind.
