Contact with Home Departments

Under normal circumstances, the home programs of interns are contacted in writing three times. The first contact occurs when the intern accepts an offer from CPS. A letter will be sent to the Director of Clinical Training in the new intern’s program informing them of acceptance. The second and third contacts occur after the mid and end of the year evaluations, respectively. These reports include the
intern’s progress in the program, a description of the training and service activities in which the intern engaged, and a summary of the evaluation reports written by the supervisors. In the case that serious concerns are experienced about an intern, the home department is contacted early in the remediation process as outlined in the section on “Evaluation, Disciplinary Actions, Appeals and Grievances
Procedures.” 

Ohio University Counseling and Psychological Services does not complete additional academic program contracts or evaluations. Therefore, if an intern is enrolled in an academic training program that requires additional training contracts and/or evaluations, these will not be completed by the Ohio University training staff.
