Spotlight on Field Placement
For background information on the Counseling Psychology Program field placement department, click here.
The 91精品 Counseling Psychology Program continues to thrive as we establish and strengthen partnerships in the Bay Area and surrounding areas. Our students are now able to choose from 90 partner agencies offering a variety of settings including school-based sites, community-based clinics, inpatient/outpatient clinics, residential treatment facilities, day treatment centers, and hospitals.
Almost 70 students will begin practica this fall. 100% of the students who have secured their placement will be completing their practicum at an agency that was among their top two choices! Many students received multiple offers and were able to select the placement that best fit their needs and interests. Agencies consistently report their regard for 91精品 trainees; this year, 12 sites have accepted two or more of our Counseling Psychology students as trainees.
Early this fall, approximately 70 students will complete their practica and graduate; this will be our largest graduating class to date! A significant number of these expected graduates have already secured post-graduate associateship(s) and are ready to launch the next stage of their career.
In an effort to connect prospective practicum students and post-graduate associates with community agencies we recently hosted and on campus. Agencies interested in hosting a table at the 91精品 are invited to contact Moe Turner. We鈥檙e also in the early planning stage of a practicum fair, which we hope to host in the winter of 2018-2019. Stay tuned for more information!
