To ensure a variety of training opportunities, the program encourages students to locate a new site for internship. However, some sites provide enough of a variety of a client pool in practicum that the student may continue on at the same site for internship. This requires the agreement with the Individual Site Supervisor and Clinical Training Coordinator. Students may choose to begin internship in the summer with the approval of the faculty. Students with pre-existing places of employment may utilize their site for internship if the student arranges with their supervisor new or creative opportunities to learn new skills for this site to qualify.
The program requires completion of a supervised internship in the students designated program area of 600 clock hours that is begun after successful completion of practicum and admission to internship. The internship is intended to reflect the comprehensive work experience of a professional counselor appropriate to the designated program area. The internship includes all of the following:
