PSY-R8313 Assessment: Measuring Treatment and Program Effectiveness
In this face-to-face residency course, learners develop skills in assessment planning for both individual clients and mental health programs. Learners review psychological tests covered during the residency year and evaluate additional assessment and evaluation methods. Through case discussions, role-plays, and group exercises, learners approach assessment as both an initial and an ongoing process for determining treatment needs, evaluating treatment progress, and assessing treatment outcome at the client and program level. Learners also investigate ethical, legal, and diversity issues associated with developing the most appropriate methods of evaluation. This residency requirement is associated with PSY8316.
