The Professionalism Ceremony is a rite of passage for students in the College of Allied Health Professions to begin their professional program or clinical encounters with patients. The ceremony focuses on professionalism, encompassing the concepts of ethical behavior, compassionate care, and service to others.

College of Allied Health Professions students who are located full time at a satellite site outside of Nebraska will be able to connect to the ceremony via Zoom from their assigned satellite site.
