Summary of Weekly Activities

Each intern's weekly schedule is carefully designed at the beginning of each semester with input from the training program guidelines, the intern's personal and professional preferences, and the Director of Training. The goal in intern schedule design is to achieve a comfortable blend of activities that reflect both the professional psychologist role and individual professional needs and interests.
