However, historically, little attention has been given to the structure and requirements of practicum training in clinical neuropsychology. A working group of senior-level neuropsychologists, as well as a current postdoctoral fellow, all from a diverse range of settings (The AACN Practicum Guidelines Workgroup), was formed to propose guidelines for practicum training in clinical neuropsychology. The Workgroup reviewed relevant literature and sought input from professional organizations involved in education and training in neuropsychology. The proposed guidelines provide a definition of practicum training in clinical neuropsychology, detail entry and exit criteria across competencies relevant to practicum training in clinical neuropsychology, and discuss the relationship between doctoral training programs and practicum training sites. The proposed guidelines also provide a methodology for competency-based evaluation of clinical neuropsychology practicum trainees and outline characteristics and features that are integral to an effective training environment. Although the guidelines discussed below may not be implemented in their entirety across all clinical neuropsychology practicum training sites, they are consistent with the latest developments in competency-based education.","url":"https:\/\/search.ebscohost.com\/login.aspx?direct=true&db=mdl&AN=26753742&authtype=shib&custid=ns346513&group=main&profile=eds","isPdfLink":true,"isSAML":false,"additionalInfo":{"Authored_By":"Nelson AP, Roper BL, Slomine BS, Morrison C, Greher MR, Janusz J, Larson JC, Meadows ME, Ready RE, Rivera Mindt M, Whiteside DM, Willment K, Wodushek TR","Journal_Info":"Publisher: Psychology Press Country of Publication: England NLM ID: 8806548 Publication Model: Print-Electronic Cited Medium: Internet ISSN: 1744-4144 (Electronic) Linking ISSN: 13854046 NLM ISO Abbreviation: Clin Neuropsychol Subsets: MEDLINE","Publication_Type":"Guideline; Journal Article; Review","Published_Date":"2015-01-01","Source":"The Clinical neuropsychologist [Clin Neuropsychol] 2015; Vol. 29 (7), pp. 879-904.
