Trainees CP's have written an open letter supporting our tutors (DClinPsych Liverpool) against the redundancies. We are asking for signatures from Psychologists (qualified, trainees, aspiring) and others who stand in solidarity to consider signing and sharing this forms.gle/RwKqWagmWUqM7z…

In a perfect world, nobody would risk their life to reach the UK. But we have to be compassionate in the real world. If you'd already fled war and horror, you might try to reach somewhere you know the language, you know people. Should that be criminalised? #AntiRefugeeBill

Hi everyone. Last year I made a document summarising the basic info for each #Dclin course. It was pretty popular. I've drafted a new one. drive.google.com/file/d/13C6vbB… I would appreciate anyone helping me fill in the missing info or correcting any mistakes

I was reading this book #TheClinicalPsychologistCollective by Dr Marianne Trent from @GoodThinkingPs1 . A lot of inspiring stories and definitely recommend to all aspiring CP. it is hoped that it could have international #dclinpsy trainees’ voices as well…

Similarly, I wonder how many trainees from the BAME/minority background able to successfully graduate from the DClinPsy? Any idea where I can get the statistic? Some courses has failed a number of int. trainees…I wonder why? We have different needs and haven’t been seen?

Received this email from one of the international applicants and YES , the chances for an international applicant to be accepted to the #dclinpsy programme is around 1-5% and it varies every year! Just because we are self-funding, it doesn’t mean we have special treatment.

The @BPS BPS Pre-Qualification Group Alternative Handbook was published yesterday. To save others the trouble, I've collated the data for the "Friends & Family" test. This measure can fluctuate but I do think it provides useful info esp. alongside the text responses (1/2) bps.org.uk/alternative-ha…

Just curious: Do you , as an international #DClinPsy trainee have an honorary contract during your training? Would love to hear your experiences, as some universities offer Service Level Agreement (SLA) instead of a contract. Feel free to share or comment. #DClinPsyTraining
