The 2025 Annual Practicum Fair will be held virtually on December 4th and 5th. The Virtual ACEPT Practicum Fair will operate similarly as last year.  Practicum sites may sign up for a one hour time slot on either day. There will be “virtual fair booths” and time will be allotted that corresponds to the training level offered (e.g., assessment, therapy, advanced, master’s). Students will have one hour to drop-in to learn more about the sites that offer their level of training and ask questions.  Students will also be provided a list of the sites, the link to the site’s virtual platform, and  link to supplemental materials that the site provided.

Additionally, ACEPT Practicum Guidelines Manual and Video are on https://aceptchicago.org/practicum-guidelines/ .

Following the practicum fair, we will host a CEU at 12:30 pm on Friday December 5th, for which you are cordially invited to attend.
