PF 773 - Assessment Practicum IThe assessment practicum is a practical, professional experience in psychological assessment related activities. Students engage in a wide range of professional clinical experiences that include tasks that a clinical forensic psychologist is expected to perform such as diagnostic interviewing and the administration of multiple assessment methods and techniques. The training experience requires a minimum of 700 hours over a minimum of nine months of on-site supervised training, including at least one hour of individual supervision per week by a licensed clinical psychologist. All students enrolled in PF 773 and PF 774 must attend a two-hour weekly seminar. This course sequence provides a small group consultation forum in which students examine relevant clinical and professional development issues that arise as the result of participation in an assessment practicum. Students present material from their practicum cases to gain mastery in the integration of theory and practice. Case conceptualizations consider rapport development, broader system issues (e.g., family, school, community, court, political, and other treatment professionals/programs), and areas of diversity and difference (e.g., race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, disability, and socioeconomic status) as contextual variables. Presentations and discussions are designed to prepare students to successfully complete their Forensic Assessment Competency Examination (FACE). *Assessment Practicum III is required for all students for whom Assessment Practicum II extends beyond the completion of the semester.
