Field Experience Reviews

This text goes above and beyond the 'typical' skill building approach to field placement experiences. The emphasis on the development of professional identity will support students as they practice applying what they have learned in a classroom to clinical work in the real world-a transition that can be challenging for many students.

-- Britney G. Brinkman, Chatham University

Wonderful text! The material assists the intern with understanding how to take theoretical skills learned within the academic setting and apply the actual internship practices to the world of work.

-- Ann Leonard, Curry College

Excellent book that will inspire and enlighten evolving professionals.

-- Mary Olufunmilayo, St. Bonaventure University
