Educator preparation programs for school district leaders are encouraged to review internship topics and activities for relevance in today's changing educational climate and programing. The National Educational Leadership Preparation (NELP) standards are research-based standards that have been approved to assist advanced programs at the master, specialist, and doctoral levels in the preparation of district leaders (National Policy Board for Educational Administration, 2018). In this study, students nearing completion and recent completers in two leadership preparation programs, one in Texas and one in Arizona, were asked to complete a survey seeking their perceptions of topics and/or experiences included in their internship program. Survey items included two questions associated with each of the first seven NELP standards for district leadership. The results of the survey provided meaningful feedback for educator preparation program improvement and insight to the challenges facing current district leaders. Findings and conclusions identified in this study may be helpful to district level educator preparation programs seeking field experience information associated with Leadership Training K-12.
