Traineeship

Catalog description

This advanced, elective course involves a supervised field experience at an approved placement site. Emphasis is on securing advanced levels of skills involved in some domain within professional psychology apart from the direct provision of clinical services to treatment populations. Traineeships may involve directed experience in supervision, program development, program evaluation, consultation, and/or other non-clinical services as approved by the program. The Traineeship consists of a minimum of 12 hours per week on-site. The Traineeship provides opportunities for students to further refine and hone professional competencies related to administration, management, program development, program evaluation, consultation, and supervision, in which clinical psychologists often are involved. Trainees are required to attend a professional practice seminar.
