Section five discusses the selection and placement of interns, and includes entrance applications and exit evaluations. The sixth section provides feedback procedures for the interns and the program. Included are (a) evaluation forms; (b) selection criteria for field associates and field coordinators; and (c) an outline of the responsibilities of field associates, field coordinators, principals, clinic professors, and clinic directors. Also included in this section is a code of ethics for the teaching profession.
