Site visitor workshops are open to those interested in becoming new site visitors, as well as to any experienced site visitors. The Committee recommends that active site visitors attend this workshop every five years in order to stay current with accreditation issues. Participants receive 7.5 CE credits for this workshop, and the Office of Accreditation pays the CE credit fees for each of the participants in these full-day workshops. There is especially a need in the site visitor pool for generalists (psychologists in areas other than clinical, counseling, and school), as well as those familiar with children’s hospitals, school psychology internship programs, correctional facilities, and consortium programs. Workshops on “How to Write a Self-Study” are open to anyone interested in learning more about the accreditation Guidelines and Principles and may be especially helpful to those who will be submitting self-studies for their programs in the near future. There are no CE credits offered for this workshop. There is no cost to participants for attending any of these workshops.
