I really can't reply about licensure. Perhaps some of our more
experienced training directors can respond to that part of the question.
However, under VA's Psychology Qualification Standards, individuals
graduating from accredited doctoral programs who successfully complete
an OAA authorized and funded new, not-yet-accredited internship ARE
eligible for VA employment or VA postdoctoral fellowships. Check out
section 2.b.(2) in the attachment.

I meant to also include getting hired by the VA if their VA internship
was new - I have always been told no problem - is it officially no
problem?

We have nervous practicum students. What is the current
wisdom/practice/policy re students getting internships/becoming licensed
if their internship was a new VA non-APA/non-APPIC site next year?
