Training Program Overview

The Landstrom Center Training Program offers a guided clinical experience in which students develop skills central to professional psychology, with a primary focus on neuropsychological assessment. Training is designed to support the development and refinement of core competencies that form the foundation of professional practice, including knowledge acquisition, clinical skill development, and the professional attitudes essential for effective and ethical care.

 

Our training philosophy is grounded in the belief that strong practicum experiences balance clinical work, supervision, and didactic learning. We strive to create a supportive environment that encourages growth while appropriately challenging students as they progress in their training. Landstrom Center’s neuropsychological assessment practicum follows a practitioner–scholar model, emphasizing experiential learning through clinical service alongside ongoing integration of scientific and scholarly principles.

 

Through clinical work and structured training activities, externs gain meaningful exposure to psychological and neuropsychological assessment while building clinical skills, ethical decision-making, and professional judgment. Practicum students also participate in didactic training that deepens their understanding of clinical neuropsychology and related topics, supporting continued professional growth.

 

Schedule Availability: Training is offered in 16-20 hr/week format. Students are expected to be on site on 2 days per week and every other Friday is mandatory for didactics, seminars and group supervision. Students are required to attend mandatory orientation sessions during the month of July.  Orientation dates are TBD for 2026-2027 students.

Qualifications While Landstrom Center understands academic performance represents only a portion of an extern's capabilities, applicants with a current GPA of 3.5 or higher are strongly preferred. Applicants must have received satisfactory (B or higher) in Cognitive/Intellectual Assessment course to support adequate understanding of WISC and WAIS administration. Applicants must have familiarity with additional psychological assessments (e.g., personality & academic measures).Applicants applying for this position should be interested in working with both child/adolescent and adult populations.
