Hello colleagues,
This is my third week as the new Practicum Director of Cal Poly Humboldt. Going through things, it seems that there are some questions about placements at professional corporations, as I have a student that is working at one that it seems many other sites have an agreement with.
I am having the CSU Legal Office review the implications of AB-690, but my understanding indicates that practicum students across the board are unable to be placed in a private practice or professional corporation. It is only after they graduate and get their ASW number that they are able to "intern" in such settings.
