Clinical Supervisory Internship Support

The next deadline to apply for clinical supervisory internship support is January 15, 2025.

Financial Support for External Internship Supervisors

Dialogue McGill offers funding to cover the needs of internship opportunities within Quebec, specifically for innovative programs in environments with fewer resources or that may require outside clinical supervisors.

In most cases, the health and social services institutions that accept interns have the professional resources to provide a level of supervision which meets the requirements of educational institutions; however, environments with fewer such resources may have internship opportunities, and innovative programs that may require outside supervisors.

With this in mind, Dialogue McGill provides funding to cover the clinical supervisory needs in order to support internship programs.

Funding Amount

$500 - $5,000

Funding per request is contingent on individual need and is assessed at the time of application.

Application Process

The current funding deadlines are listed below. Educational institutions may request funding at any point during the fiscal year, but applications and reimbursements will be processed at each funding deadline.
