The next step is to fill out our practicum placement request form so that details about your organization can be included in our placement book. Rising specialization year students use the book to evaluate available opportunities, and our Practicum Learning coordinators use it to place generalist year students. Then we help coordinate interviews with students who are interested in a placement at your organization or who we think could be a match for your internship opportunity.  

When students are accepted by your organization for placement, we confirm the details and assess whether the designated practicum instructor needs SIFI training. For generalist year students, we make an effort to finalize placements at least two weeks before the semester starts. For specialized practice year students, we kick off the placement process in the January or February before the next fall semester starts, and we finalize placements by late spring.
