Observations: serve as the introductory phase of clinical experience, typically requiring 10 to 60 hours depending on the program and field of study. Often referred to as early field experience, introductory fieldwork, or foundational observation, this phase allows candidates to develop an understanding of professional roles within a school settings. Candidates observe certified or licensed practitioners engaged in instruction, assessment, therapy, counseling, or consultation activities. These experiences emphasize reflection and application of theoretical knowledge, helping candidates begin to understand student needs, learning environments, and school operations before assuming any direct responsibilities.
Practicums: represent a developmental stage of clinical preparation, generally encompassing 40 to 200 hours of field-based engagement. Also referred to as early clinical practice, course-embedded fieldwork, or applied practicum, this phase allows candidates to actively participate in professional tasks under the supervision of qualified personnel.

Practicums are intentionally aligned with program coursework and designed to build competency through structured feedback and guided application of skills.
