Educational Leadership Internship FAQs
When am I eligible to complete the internship portion of the program?
Students are eligible to complete their internship after they have 27 credits completed (including CEQ 501, 502 & 503 for EDL and EDL Online students and CEQ 501 & 502 for SDBL students).
When is the internship offered?
The internship is offered over a spring/summer or summer /fall term.
Where will I be able to complete my internship?
Students typically complete their internship within the district that they are currently employed. Students in the SDBL program will be placed for their internships by Dr. Robert Scheidet.
How many hours are needed to complete the EDL or SDBL internship?
Please contact Dr. Robert Scheidet, Internship Coordinator, at rscheidet@notes.cc.sunysb.edu or at (631) 632-4584 to find out how many hours are needed to complete either internship.
When will I begin the process of applying for the internship?
Online and on campus matriculated students must notify Dr. Scheidet of their 27-credit eligibility in early November for the spring/summer internship and early April for the summer/fall internship. Cohort students do their internship as a cohort group.
What happens next after I notify Dr. Scheidet?
All students must attend a mandatory orientation meeting, scheduled as follows:
- Spring Summer Internship Orientation: On or about November 19
- Summer/Fall Internship Orientation: On or about April 16
Online students will “attend” this meeting by viewing three videos on Blackboard. Dr. Scheidet visits each off-campus cohort of students eligible to do the internship.
When do I register for the internship?
No student is allowed to register himself or herself for the internship (585) and/or the internship seminar (586). Dr. Scheidet registers all approved interns.
When can I begin logging hours?
Not until all items are submitted and approved by Dr. Scheidet. This submission process, known as the Proposal Stage, is explained at the mandatory informational meeting.
I am currently in an administrative position. Will my internship be waived?
If a student is currently working in an administrative position they will not be granted a waiver for their internship. Twenty-five percent (25%) of the internship hours can be derived from work done in this administrative position.
Statement
of Student Responsibility
Students themselves—whether new, returning, or continuing—are responsible for reviewing, understanding, and adhering to their degree and/or certificate program requirements. (SPD’s Non-matriculating (non-degree) Graduate Students [GSP] are responsible for adhering to the guidelines related to non-matriculated status.) All SPD students are responsible for reviewing, understanding, and complying with University and SPD regulations, policies, and procedures, as described in all official publications, the University website, and the SPD website, including, but not limited to, SPD’s online references, the SPD Bulletin and SPD Academic Calendar.

Certification and Licensing Workshops
Chapter 544 of New York State Law (1988) requires many licensed professionals, teachers and school administrators applying for the renewal of a license, registration, certificate or limited permit to complete coursework regarding child abuse, substance abuse and school violence. Effective July 1, 2001, fingerprinting is also required. To satisfy these requirements, SPD offers three workshops and one fingerprinting session.
