insurance policy through the Seabury and Smith Chicago Insurance Company covers doctoral
students for liability purposes who are on practica unless the student is certified or licensed, in
which case student liability coverage must be secured through APA. This policy does not
cover Predoctoral Interns. Students must submit proof of student liability insurance when
filing their material. The department recommends, however, that all students on practica or
internship secure their own coverage at student rate through APA. Students who are asked to
sign contracts with field placements must have their contracts reviewed by the Coordinator of
Doctoral Practicum Placements.
Practicum Evaluations and Logs. Students who complete field placements as part of PSYC
695, PSYC 750-54, PSYC 780-81 and PSYC 782-83 (and, PSYC 785, if needed) are required
to submit an Evaluation and Activity Log, which should be signed by the student and
supervisor and handed in to the course instructor for filing with the Coordinator of Doctoral
Practicum Placements. During practica, students are required to have experience with
different clinical populations in different settings, and to log these experiences for record
keeping . Students are required to subscribe to a product by Time2Track to log hours.
Time2Track offers an online database that allows students to track their logs by easily
entering the services they provide each day. It organizes the data and provides reports
students need to submit for practicum logs and for internship applications. It also allows
faculty to view the logs throughout the semester and make sure students are getting the
experiences they need throughout the semester. Students who complete field placements as
part of PSYC 695, PSYC 750-54, PSYC 780-81 and PSYC 782-83 (and PSYC 785, if
needed) are required to submit an Evaluation and Activity Log, which should be signed by the
student and supervisor and handed in to the course instructor for filing with the Coordinator of
Doctoral Practicum Placements.
