Faculty The following guidelines will assist faculty, students, and site supervisors in working through internship concerns. Discuss the problem. We strongly encourage the individuals involved to discuss the situation, negotiate on their own, and work toward agreement. Occasionally problems arise during an internship.
Early intervention can usually lead to a solution which is acceptable to all involved.
If a problem arises, it is important to deal with it immediately. This, of course, is the ideal. If a solution cannot be found, move on. If the problem is with the student or the site supervisor, consult with the faculty instructor. Site supervisors should call faculty when a problem arises which cannot be resolved through discussion.
