BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY STUDENT ROTATION TRAINING AGREEMENT This Off-Site preceptor Student Rotation Training Agreement (“Agreement”) sets forth the terms of the rotation of Students from Brigham Young University (“BYU”), a nonprofit educational institution of higher learning with its principal campus located in Provo, Utah, to Maricopa County, by and for its Department of Public Health (“MCDPH”’), whose principal office is located at 4041 N.

The educational goals and objectives for any rotation will be provided by BYU to the applicable MCDPH preceptor prior to the start of the rotation. If these goals and objectives are acceptable to MCDPH, the MCDPH preceptor will sign a statement agreeing to meet the goals and objectives of the rotation and will return a copy to BYU. The Program Director of the applicable Training Program at BYU shall retain full control and responsibility for the overall education of the Students. 2. Responsibilities of BYU for Rotations A.
