Doctorate in Educational and Child Psychology (DECPsy) 2007-2010
Changes to EP Post-graduate Training
In
2006 all post-graduate training programmes in Educational Psychology
became 3 year professional doctorates. This replaced the old
post-graduate route to chartered status, which required two years
qualified teaching experience - a one year accredited masters degree in
educational psychology and one year of supervised practice, by someone
eligible for chartered status as a Chartered Educational Psychologist.
All accredited masters courses in educational psychology ceased at the end of August 2006.
The
first cohort of candidates undertaking the new 3 year doctoral route
started their training in September 2006, the second in September 2007
and application is now open via the Children's Workforce Development
Council (CWDC) for 2008 entry.
Please visit www.cwdcouncil.org.uk for details about the application process for funded EP training places now open.
A pre-requisite to entry on to an accredited training programme requires candidates to obtain the Graduate Basis for Registration - details of which can be found under the Careers section of the Society's website: www.bps.org.uk/careers/areas/educational.cfm
