More DescriptionVolume II of the Handbook of Education, Training, and Supervision of School Psychologists in School and Community will bridge the gap from the classroom education to the field-based training of new professionals. Supervision is at the center of this process, and a major part of this volume will focus on the role of the supervisor as trainer in different contexts. A series of chapters will also be devoted to some of the most difficult situations that can unexpectedly confront the school psychologist in practice, and a third part will consider the credentialing and continuing education issues of the school psychologist throughout the course of a career. A final section will offer recommendations on how the collaboration between university and field-based education can be further improved in the future, to anticipate and meet the needs of the next generations of professionals and the children in their care.
