In this placement students undertake practical experience in an external placement agency under the supervision of an experienced psychologist. Students are required to conduct individual or population assessments and interventions, and to undertake other activities as directed. Candidates should demonstrate competence with the presentation of reports to the client and the client's family, organisations or colleagues, and to make a contribution to case planning meetings and other institutional commitments as they arise within the placement setting. There is also a 10-day intensive placement in an external psychiatric setting (see PSY5CPC).
