Clinical Agreements

University of North Georgia students get real world experience at hundreds of off-campus sites with which the university has established clinical affiliations. The university enters into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with each site, using forms prescribed by the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia. Once an MOU is in place, students may begin their applied learning experiences for academic credit.

There are Four Types of MOU

  • MOU with a of the Georgia Hospital Association.
    Requires the following forms:
  • MOU for clinical training at health care facilities other than GHA member hospitals
  • MOU for clinical education experience (schools)
  • MOU for applied educational experience (non-profit agencies, government agencies, etc.)

How to Establish an MOU

Faculty may request that the university review a MOU to establish a relationship with a new site or renew a relationship with a soon-to-expire site, by submitting a request to the Office of General Counsel using the .

Please give the Office of General Counsel sufficient time to process the request before a student’s internship is to start. We recommend a minimum of thirty days, because on occasion the facility will have issues with the language of the MOU that takes time to work out.

Please let us know if you have any questions about the process.
