REHABILITATION COUNSELING CLINICAL FIELDWORK EXPECTATIONS The Council on Rehabilitation Education (CORE) requires that each student complete a minimum of 600 hours in rehabilitation counseling (240 hours of one-on-one individual counseling) at an agency site.

Students will complete their fieldwork in clinical sites which provide services to individuals with disabilities. According to the CORE Manual, suggested sites where the student may complete their clinical fieldwork/internship are as follows: 1. State offices of rehabilitation, commission for the blind or developmental disabilities; 2. Vocationally oriented facilities; Fieldwork Student Manual Revised 02/14 4

3. State training schools and rehabilitation centers; 4. Medical hospitals- medical rehabilitation; 5. Psychiatric hospitals; 6. Community mental health clinics; 7. Correctional institutions; 8.

Rehabilitation units of larger entities, (e.g., Workers Compensation, Railroads, Public Utilities, Veterans Administration Hospitals, Dept. of Labor, etc.) Clinical Fieldwork/Internship is a culminating process in which students are encouraged to complete their clinical experience near the end of their program of study. Further, students are encouraged to have as wide a variety of experiences as possible within this clinical area. Fieldwork experiences shall include an average of one (1) hour per week of individual or 1½ hours per week of group (with no more than 10 students/group) supervision by a program faculty member or qualified individual working in cooperation with a program faculty member. Students who have returned to school and who are currently working on a full-time basis in the rehabilitation field will be allowed to use their work-based experiences for one of the three required quarters, as long as the student is engaging in new learning activities for this fieldwork experience. For the additional two quarters, the fieldwork experience must include a minimum of 100 hours each quarter completed in a rehabilitation setting that is not their place of employment. Fieldwork students are to complete 80 hours of one-on-one direct client counseling experience each quarter. For students who are not working in the rehabilitation field, they will need to complete all three fieldwork experiences in a rehabilitation service setting that includes 80 hours of one-on-one direct client counseling experience each quarter. NOTE: For students who are a Training Award Recipient on the RSA Long Term Training Grant in Rehabilitation Counseling, the student must complete a minimum of two fieldwork experiences (EREH 679) with the California Department of Rehabilitation effective fall, 2014.

Fieldwork Student Manual Revised 02/14 5

REHABILITATION COUNSELING CLINICAL EVALUATION The supervision and evaluation of the student during clinical fieldwork is the responsibility of the university supervisor in consultation with the on-site supervisor and the student s CRC mentor. The on-site supervisor has an important role in the evaluation process and subsequently there is close cooperation between the university and on-site supervisor. All on-site supervisors participate in a continual evaluation process of the student s activities. The CRC mentor meets with the student for approximately one hour per week to discuss general issues and professional and ethical dilemmas. A student who experiences difficulties during the clinical fieldwork experience will meet with both the on-site and university supervisors. This discussion is designed to help resolve the problem. A student may be removed from a fieldwork site if the student is demonstrating unethical or unsound rehabilitation counseling practices or if the student is not conducting him/herself in an appropriate manner within the agency setting. This may include, but not be limited to, questions of tardiness, absenteeism, and general behaviors that would be reasons for dismissal as a probationary employee. Serious violations of rehabilitation counseling ethics and practices may result in the student being terminated from the CSUSB rehabilitation counseling program. When a student is deemed to be proceeding in an unsatisfactory manner in a Fieldwork course, a Corrective Action Plan (see Appendices I & J) will be prepared by the University Supervisor summarizing both the points of concern and a specific action plan for remediation, including specific recommendations, behavioral outcomes, and deadlines for review that offer a realistic opportunity for the student to experience an ultimately successful Fieldwork experience. Successful completion of the Corrective Action Plan is required in order for the student to receive a passing grade in the Fieldwork course. The student s evaluation in Clinical Fieldwork is a Credit/No Credit assessment. This allows the student the opportunity to try new ideas and concepts without fear of it negatively affecting the student s grade. If a student does not submit all required course work, does not attend the mandatory class meetings, and/or fails to complete required hours within the quarter, the student will receive a No Credit standing for the course. If the student receives a No Credit mark for any fieldwork experience, the student is required to retake the clinical fieldwork course. Clinical Fieldwork hours completed during a quarter when a No Credit mark is assigned are not carried into the next fieldwork experience. A student with a No Credit mark is required to repeat all 200 hours except in exceptional cases. A student s grade in Clinical Fieldwork will be based on an evaluation of the following three areas: * 1. Rehabilitation Counseling skills and practices (50% of evaluation process) 2. Participation in seminar activities (25% of evaluation process) Fieldwork Student Manual Revised 02/14 6

3. Functioning and understanding of community rehabilitation organizations (25% of evaluation process) Please note conditions in prior paragraph regarding when a No Credit grade will be assigned.
