In practically every related field I know of, there are online, virtual, hybrid, etc. ways of getting training (e.g. masters in school counseling, LCSW, etc) whereas there are very few (maybe 1 or 2 that I'm aware of) ways for current educational professionals to pursue training in school psychology. I wonder if NASP or someone could help adapt credentialing requirements for what they could look like in online or hybrid formats to improve access for educators who are interested in school psychology.

This helps our board be aware of how many students are in the graduate programs, which helps us know how many interns we may have in the state. It also helps provide some data about how many students are leaving the state. We have also worked with our state department liaison on getting funding for internships, which has been helpful to retaining people.
