PSY7286 Advanced Clinical Practice 1
SCHOOL OF PSYCHOLOGY AND SOCIAL SCIENCE
Credit Points: 12.5
 
Description:
The aim of this unit is to allow students to report on their clinical work, to formally present such work to lecturers and fellow students and, thereby, to be able to critically evaluate their own clinical practice. Links between clinical practice and psychological theory and research are emphasised. The unit will enable students to integrate clinical and academic aspects of training, thus emphasising the scientist-practitioner model. The focus is on clinical problems likely to be encountered in the third year of training on placement. There will also be more emphasis on difficult and complex cases. Learning Contracts, agreed between lecturer and student, will ensure that all core competencies and experiences listed in the Core Competencies Handbook are acquired in the third year of the program.
