Winner of the University of Memphis Psychology Department Distinguished Service Award

The Louisiana School Psychology Internship Consortium (LAS*PIC) is an APA accredited internship. We invite applications from students who have completed their graduate coursework in school psychology. During the past 20 years, LAS*PIC has provided an authentic,  school-based training experience for interns. An internship experience is an essential and integral part of a training program. The relationship between the university training program and internship should be viewed as a complementary one. One of the most important decisions students will make  is the selection of an internship site that best meets their professional goals and promotes their career development. As students contemplate this decision they will want to consider the site that will best prepare them for the events, conditions, and tasks they will encounter    in professional settings. The internship should support development of skills for competent practice, involving a variety of professional experiences, a focus on collaborative problem solving, and continued professional development with a core internship curriculum. Additionally, the internship should provide expert advice and feedback, behavior-modeling opportunities, and congruence between what interns want and what they get in the supervisory relationship. The Louisiana School Psychology Internship Consortium (LAS*PIC) realizes that activities during an internship can shape the direction of a professional career and support a successful entry into specialization within the profession.

Interns will be accepted into the program on a non-discriminatory basis, without regard to race, color, creed, religion, sex, age, national origin, or disability. Interns are selected based on their potential to benefit from the training program and their potential to contribute to the Program and to the field of School Psychology.

Applications are due by Wednesday, November 14, 2012 and screened applicants will be invited to interview in December and January. As APPIC members, LAS*PIC subscribes to the National Matching Service, which will publish Phase I match results, Friday, February 22, 2013.

Louisiana Regulations do not allow us to accept applicants who do not have specialty training in school psychology to work in the schools.  We can offer internships only to those students who have completed the requisite training in a graduate program in School Psychology.  Applicants must be registered with APPIC in order to apply.  These are the steps necessary to complete an application:    

1. Visit the APPIC Website www.appic.org and follow the online procedures.

Applications are screened and rated as they are received.  Top rated applicants are offered an on-site interview.  Be sure to provide an address, phone number and email address where you can be reached in late November.  Selection of interns is based on both the evaluation of the application packet and the results of the interviews.  The internship starts in August with completion in the middle of the following July.  Please do not hesitate to call (504-556-7566) or email gheber@lsuhsc.edu for additional information as you complete the application process.  You may also wish to contact us to assure that your application materials are complete by the deadline.

Therefore, it is with these influences and expectations, the program focuses on the following general training goals relative to the independent practice of psychology:

• Further development of general professional psychological skills to an appropriate level of professional competence.
• Further development of psychological assessment skills to an appropriate level of professional competence.
• Further development of psychological intervention skills to an appropriate level of professional competence.
• Further development of psychological consultation skills to an appropriate level of professional competence.
