Internship Training Site Overview

The Internship Training Site Overview is designed to help students learn about the internship application and selection process, including what to look for when applying to or selecting an internship, how to prepare for internship interviews, and how to find a good internship “fit.” The program will consist of two parts. The first 90 minutes will feature a panel discussion by behaviorally oriented internship directors from American and Canadian institutions. These presenters will address both the training director and the student perspectives of the application process, including the criteria used to assess applicants. Questions from the audience will be accepted at the end of the segment. The second section will consist of informal meetings between internship site representatives and prospective internship applicants. A list of participating sites will be published in the program addendum distributed at the convention registration desk. If you are a student, and are either just beginning to learn about internships and the application process or are in the process of applying for internship now, we encourage you to attend. Internship sites that would like to be represented at this event should contact Stephen Crane at the ABCT Central Office: meetings@abct.org.
