Questions for Students seeking internships.

Do I need to have an account to view the Directory?
No, simply click on "Search the database" to view sites with internships

How can I determine the quality of internship sites?
You can't just by viewing this database.  First you need to make sure that your supervisor is certified by NCTRC.  You may ask the supervisor for names of past students whom you can call.

Can I search with a narrow criteria?
YES, you can conduct searches based on multiple criteria's.  For example, if you are looking to work in Wilmington, in a psychiatric facility and for adolescents... you simply input those criteria and if there are such a listing, the database will find it for you.  Of course, while the database is small with few listings, you should use a broader search.

IMPORTANT. Students, it is your responsibility to make sure that the person you do your TR internship with is certified as CTRS!!!!
