Overview of Student Placement Process

Student placements are managed through Ascension WI’s database tool called the Electronic Student Clinical Placement Process (ESCPP). All requests must be placed by a school coordinator or designee. Students cannot place requests themselves. The placement process is as follows:
  1. Requests are entered into the ESCPP database at least 4 weeks prior to anticipated clinical start date.
  2. The Ascension WI Student Placement Coordinator will check if there is an active Master Affiliation Agreement between Ascension WI and the school and if the site will accept placement. The school will then receive notification of acceptance.
  3. a. Affiliation Agreements must be on file for any school before a student can be approved for placement. Please be advised that setting up an affiliation agreement can take anywhere from 4-8 weeks and sometimes even longer. It is advised to contact us early if an agreement is needed.

  4. Once placement is accepted, the student and instructor information must be entered by the school coordinator. The school must verify health requirements and complete a criminal background check. Any students with positive background checks must be cleared through the Ascension WI Student Placement Coordinator prior to the start of their clinical experience.
