Internships in the program involve the application of knowledge and skills learned. Internships require 450 hours of supervised clinical experience, typically divided equally between elementary and secondary settings.
The portfolio requirement is designed so that students create an organized view of themselves and their professional capabilities. While the requirement is to be completed during the last semester of the program, students are strongly encouraged to collect and organize material as they proceed through the program.
