Interns completing American Psychological Association-accredited internships in correctional facilities were surveyed regarding their perceptions of their internship experience. Several of the internships surveyed included a formal forensic rotation. Results revealed that these internships provided an excellent degree of core training. Findings uniformly suggested that these interns were satisfied with the quality of their training and felt prepared for future employment. Many of those who completed a correctional/forensic internship left the experience with a higher degree of interest in the field than when they began. Most interns were able to secure employment within 3 months of the end of their internship at competitive salaries in correctional and other settings.
