However due to the nature of college counseling and university work, there may be times when you will need to work more than the traditional 40-hour week or participate in after-hours activities such as 外展 programs and crisis intervention. This time will count in your total SPE for the year. Interns are expected to acquire a minimum of 1,850 hours in order to successfully complete the internship, however many interns choose to work extra hours to bring their total up to 2,000.
