Washington State Internship Requirements

The Residency Principal's Certificate is based on the ISLLC Standards. All candidates for the Washington State Residency Principal's Certificate must spend 720 hours in a full school-year field experience, of which at least one half shall be when students and staff are present. The intern shall be under the supervision of a mentoring principal or vice principal certificated at the appropriate level with a minimum one year experience in the role.

 
Internship Approval Required

Western Washington University recognizes the key role that local school districts play in the mentorship, leadership, development, and ultimately in sponsoring the internship of aspiring administrators. Administrative certification candidates are to discuss leadership goals and administrative career aspirations with the mentoring administrator before, or commensurate with, application to the certification program. Candidates shall initiate the internship application and approval process within their districts upon acceptance into the certification program, or as deemed appropriate by the local district.
