PSY-R8301 Professional Issues in Clinical Psychology
This face-to-face residency course is the first in a series designed to complement online courses. Learners acquire the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary to begin doctoral-level practicum training. Learners evaluate the logistics and progression of the year-in-residence, the importance of time management and effective support, and the necessity of group cohesion and teamwork for the successful completion of the year. Learners also assess current issues and trends in professional psychology; identify their individual strengths and weaknesses; anticipate potential barriers to completing the residency; and develop a plan, both as individuals and as a group, for successfully progressing to practicum training. This residency requirement is associated with PSY5430.
