STATEMENT OF NEED
Medical Education and Training Campus (METC) eBooks for the Physical Therapy Technician (PTT) Course Joint Base San Antonio (JBSA) – Fort Sam Houston, TX
REVISED 30 December 2025
1. INTRODUCTION:
The Medical Education and Training Campus (METC) has updated the consolidated curriculum for the Physical Therapy Technician (PTT) Course. An Interservice Training Review Organization (ITRO) Resource Requirements Analysis (RRA) Meeting was conducted on 21 January 2020. This body projected a need for revision of all existing course objectives as historic references were deemed obsolete. Each title in the proposed list is on CAPTE’s (Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education) curriculum development textbook list. Each student in the course will require one set of electronic references (eBooks). Each instructor will require one set of eBooks as well. The eBook access will expire after 180 days (after graduation), and new accounts will be created for new incoming students.
2. BACKGROUND: The entire PTT Course consolidated curriculum is fully digital. The purchase of these e-Books offers complete coverage of every competency statement with clarity and precision in a concise format that ensures student comprehension and encourages critical thinking. New cognitive and didactic material is presented, along with new skills and features, to create a robust and innovative PTT training solution.
The PTT Course also needs a solution that does not require a Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) to be integrated with SAKAI due to Joint Knowledge Online (JKO) restrictions. This option does not interfere with JKO, SAKAI, or network firewall restrictions. This unique access flexibility and multi-publisher reference database is ideal.
