Description

Practicum I provides a structured, supervised school-based fieldwork experience for school psychology candidates. Through a combination of placement-based training and seminar, candidates apply coursework to authentic school experiences, developing foundational competencies across NASP domains through observation, guided practice, and reflective supervision. Emphasis is placed on professional role development; consultation and collaboration with educators and families; assessment-to-intervention linkage; and early experiences with academic, behavioral, and social-emotional supports. Candidates maintain required documentation and demonstrate skill growth through performance-based evaluations aligned with professional standards.
