Question regarding PCSAS requirements / predoctoral clinical training internship for psychology
 

Is PCSAS as stringent in its requirements when it comes to internship programs for college and universities?
Some universities when pursuing PCSAS accredition seek it as a replacement for APA.

The PCSAS information on its website do not say anything about working in tandem with feloowships, program matching, mentorship etcera

Community (local) based experience in regards to earning a doctorate is a must. 
As the University of Minnesota points out
