It is the belief of the School that equal to one's academic experience is the immediate and effective application of theoretical knowledge in practice. Thus, each student is required to be involved, as part of his or her degree program, in an integrating clinical Internship.
An Internship site is defined by AGS as any place where theoretical learning maybe applied in a supervised environment. The Internship portion of the program consists of 9 credits. Students are required to take 7 terms (6 credits) of Internship, a 1 credit Individual Supervision, which can occur any time in the second year, and a 3 credit Master's Project.
The student must log all hours and attend the supervision class at AGS. Grading is Pass/Fail and is based on a satisfactory evaluation from the site supervisor, logging at least the minimum number of required hours on site, completing all class assignments and attending Internship Supervision and Advanced Supervision classes.
The Individual Supervision, Class 598, consists of receiving individual supervision of a client case over multiple sessions to advise the student and evaluate therapeutic skills as the client moves to achieve treatment goals. The supervisor may come to the internship site and observe the student with a client or a series of sessions may be taped and reviewed by the student and the supervisor.
