Education Specialist Internship Credentials

Mild to Moderate, Moderate to Severe, and Deaf and Hard of Hearing specialties

You must first be fully admitted to the appropriate program, offered an internship position by a school district, and have the approval of your adviser before you can proceed with the application process. You cannot submit an application for an internship until you have met with your advisor and approval has been documented in your file.

Cal Lutheran currently has internship agreements with all districts in Ventura County, as well as in Los Angeles Unified School Districts 1 and 2 (east and west San Fernando Valley areas). Your advisor will determine if supervision can be provided at the school in which you are being offered an internship, and if the school meets eligibility requirements.
