Jobs and Licensure
Licensure Questions?
Minnesota: http://education.state.mn.us (go to Educator Licensing)
Interns: Interns may be licensed under an Internship license if the intern is not the "psychologist of record." If the intern is hired in a regular position for which there is no licensed person available, the intern may be licensed under a "Limited license." Please work closely with your hiring district in seeking licensure in these cases.
North Dakota: http://www.dpi.state.nd.us/
Interns: In North Dakota, interns work under a "letter of approval" from the Department of Public Instruction (DPI) Office of Special Education. To obtain the appropriate approval, contact Jean Newborg, Assistant Director of Special Education at 701-328-2277.
