This Certificate is a 60-credit introductory course for graduates with insufficient, inappropriate or no prior study of psychology at degree level. Satisfactory completion of the Certificate allows entry onto the one-year full-time equivalent Conversion Diploma which confers British Psychological Society (BPS) graduate membership and the graduate basis for registration (GBR). GBR is a pre-requisite for entry to postgraduate training in applied areas of professional psychology, such as counselling, clinical, educational, forensic, health and occupational psychology. Graduates with a minimum of 60 credits of appropriate psychology (cognitive, development, social, biological, psychology and personality) at degree level can apply directly for a place on the Conversion Diploma course. Any exemptions are granted only by the Admissions Tutor.
You are assessed with a range of methods including practical reports and end-of-module examinations.
