A comprehensive 15 module orientation course that teaches the full spectrum of critical competencies and skills your students need to reach their highest potential.
Our coaching program is one of three success elements PA and Professional schools can use to reduce attrition, improve dropout rates, and increase student PANCE scores or other test scores.
These incredible resources will help you build momentum for your business and bring your message to life.
In the fiercely competitive field of Physician Assistant education, our state-of-the-art predictive modeling system
is revolutionizing student success. Backed by rigorous research and validated through extensive data analysis since 2008, this cutting-edge solution empowers program directors and faculty to forecast and enhance certification exam outcomes with unparalleled accuracy.
The Student Success Coaching Certification equips educators with the skills needed to effectively guide students towards achieving their academic and professional goals.
When programs experience a first time taker pass rate on the PANCE less than 85% the ARC-PA requires that the program submit the PANCE Required Report for Low First-Time Taker Pass Rates.
This report requires that the program conduct a deep dive into the root cause of why the PANCE pass rates have decreased. This is a data-driven process to discover and implement improvements to enhance student outcomes. This report is identical to the appendix 14 F report required in the self study report.
Whether your PA Program is pursuing initial provisional status, hoping to get off probation, or working towards continuing status, Scott Massey PhD LLC provides personalized services to help your PA Program succeed.

Program Director -Western University of Health Sciences
"Dr. Scott Massey’s ability to talk with others about his past and how he got through it is amazing. Two members of my family struggle with alcoholism, and it’s difficult to watch, so his story resonated with me. He has and will continue to help others with their personal struggles."
I have a lot of respect for Scott as a person. I’m twenty-two and living the young, “fun” stage of life, but his talk helped me realize the decisions I need to make now. I enjoyed his presentation; he spoke fearlessly.
Scott is incredibly inspiring! He took control of his life even when he didn’t have others supporting him. I enjoyed hearing his story. He did a great job making it relatable to everyone and challenged us to reflect on our own lives.
I felt the most impact when Dr. Massey talked about what makes him a better person. I personally deal with anxiety and think about things I can’t do instead of focusing on what I can do. After hearing Dr. Massey share his motivations, though, I’m inspired to set my mind on the things I can do!
Listening to Scott gave me hope for my future. He posed challenging questions that truly got me thinking. I think others can benefit from reflecting on his story and his questions, too.
Scott has a powerful story and I hope he continues to share it. He realized he wasn’t the person he wanted to be, so he made decisions that turned his life around. He created a plan of action and changed his life—we can do the same.
I believe each person has the ability to transform their life. Regardless of your past, you can make your future successful.
Whether you’re struggling with addiction, broken relationships, or financial issues, you can enhance your life.

I learned this valuable lesson under your guidance in PA school and it made all the difference. These skills should be absolutely mandatory for every PA student. I had previously completed doctorate program before going to PA school but was never challenged as much as the PA program. I sincerely hope all PA students access your program. It will make all the difference in surviving and thriving in a program.”
