The School Psychology program is NASP approved and will instill in you competencies in all 10 NASP domains, as well as all CTC standards, covering a wide range of competencies including data-based decision-making, consultation, academic and social-emotional interventions, and family-school collaboration. 

Educational Objectives

Our focus on multilingual learners and migrant youth will deepen your learning experience and equip you with a broader perspective on how to effectively implement equitable practices within schools and districts.

Our NASP accreditation ensures that you’re entrusting your education and future career in a school and program that has achieved the highest standards of excellence as mandated by the National Association of School Psychologists. 

Our emphasis on the development of practical, hands-on skills means you’ll gain field experience beginning in the first year, as well as a 450-hour practicum in the second year and a 1,200-hour internship in the third year. 

Our Clinic for Educational Supports will enrich your preparation and training even further, providing affordable psychoeducational assessment and speech language services to local families with whom you’ll work to sharpen your skills.
