The administrative services internship program prepares a student to work as a paid school administrator while being enrolled in the administrative services program. An internship candidate must be requested by a school district. Students receive support from district mentors and university supervisors. To keep the internship credential active, a student must register for a 1−unit course each semester that provides guidance for individualized planning, mentoring and supervision. During each semester the district mentor, university supervisor and intern student have contact a minimum of three times to review strengths and administrative development. In addition, the student and university supervisor have contact at least two more times throughout the semester.
