Students will initially spend about 6 weeks in the classroom establishing foundational knowledge in their program. They'll then start to work with mentors in the field. They'll spend some of their school week working alongside these professionals to gain a broader understanding of the field and the work that's involved. The classroom will remain a home base for students and the class will continue to meet regularly as a group to reflect on their experiences and gain deeper knowledge. Typically, students in the Connections programs will conduct all mentorship experiences onsite at either the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus or Millard Fillmore Hospital. Students in Legal Academy and Business, Management, and Marketing will be expected to travel to a series of internship experiences within the community.
