Doctoral Internship in Health Service Psychology

Internship Policies and Accreditation Status 

The University of North Dakota University Counseling Center (UCC) Doctoral Internship in Health Service Psychology maintains a full set of written policies and procedures that govern the training program. These include, but are not limited to: recruitment and selection procedures, eligibility requirements, expectations for successful internship performance, intern evaluation and feedback processes, due process and grievance procedures, remediation and termination policies, supervision requirements, maintenance of training records, and non-discrimination policies. 

These policies are available to all current interns at the start of the training year through UND’s Policy Stat system.

During orientation, the Training Director reviews these policies in detail and interns sign an acknowledgment of receipt and understanding. Copies of relevant policies are also available to prospective applicants upon request from the Training Director.
