Abstract
A survey of all applied psychology doctoral training programs listed i n Graduate Study in Psychology and Associated Fields (American Psychol ogical Association [APA], 1990) examining the experiences of directors of training with APA's process of accreditation found an overall posi tive view by training directors. However, some accreditation component s were identified as troublesome. Recommendations are offered to addre ss these concerns and to improve some problem areas.
