Application Preparation Session for our MSc Applied Psychology (Healthcare) for Children and Young People programme

MSc Applied Psychology (Healthcare) for Children and Young People is a taught masters programme at the University of Edinburgh that trains psychology graduates to become clinical associates in applied psychology (CAAPs). It's well established that there is underrepresentation of people from racially minoritised backgrounds in psychology, including in the clinical associate role. 

To support greater diversity in our applicants, trainee cohorts and clinical associate workforce, we would like to invite candidates from racially minoritised backgrounds to this 1 hour online seminar on the application process. You are welcome to join us if you are considering applying for the programme this year, or might want to apply in the future. 

The seminar will cover: 

  • What a clinical associate is, and what a typical day in the role looks like 
  • Practical steps for how to apply 
  • A detailed looked at the person specification for the role 
  • Hints and tips for the application process 
  • A chance for you to ask questions and meet some of the programme team

This session is scheduled to take place on 26 June from 6:30pm to 7:30pm. The seminar will be hosted on an online platform. Please visit the booking link to register, after registering you will receive a link to join the online session via email.
