Academic Requirements:
First or upper second class honours degree (or international equivalent) in
Psychology recognised by the British Psychological Society as conferring
Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership, and a minimum of one year of
relevant experience. Candidates with a lower second class degree (or
international equivalent) may be considered if they EITHER have a
postgraduate degree at masters level or higher OR meet specific contextual
admissions indicators. Applicants are strongly encouraged to complete the
contextual admissions questionnaire.
Applicants should have previous supervised practical experience relevant to
clinical training which demonstrates that they have the personal and
intellectual ability, including writing skills, to pursue a challenging and
demanding postgraduate training course.
Postgraduate research experience can be an advantage, and the capacity to be
critical and analytical, to work in a self-motivated independent way, and to
set personal priorities is essential. Innovative and entrepreneurial
potential is also highly desirable. Candidates should have a long-standing
interest in clinical psychology and a strong understanding and commitment to
the positive and unique contribution psychologists can make to the NHS.
Excellent interpersonal skills at a level appropriate for dealing with
people in distress and the ability to collaborate with colleagues from other
disciplines are expected. Candidates should note that with the Clearing
House application the Relevant Experience Reference must be from your
current employer.
The programme covers a large geographical area and teaching is provided at
both the University of Lincoln and the University of Nottingham. A current
driving licence or other means of being independently mobile is essential.
Trainees should expect to travel for at least two and a half hours per day
(between both universities and from base to placement).
Trainees whose first language is not English will be required to have a
recognised English language qualification achieved no more than two years
prior to admission:
- A British Council IELTS overall minimum score of 7.5 with no element below
7.0, achieved no more than two years prior to admission.
- Pearson Test of English Academic: 73 (minimum 67).
- Centre for English Language Education pre-sessional course final
assessment of "Pass with High Distinction".
The selection procedure operates within the equal opportunities policies of
the two universities and the NHS partners, and no applicant will be
discriminated against on grounds of race, religion, gender, age, disability,
or sexual orientation. Groups currently under-represented in clinical
psychology are encouraged to apply, including individuals from ethnic
minorities and people with disabilities.
The programme currently only accepts trainees who are funded through NHS
training commissions, and successful candidates will be employed by one of
the three partner trusts. All applicants are subject to the same selection
process and criteria regardless of which NHS Trust employs them.
Entry to the programme is through the Clearing House application and
subsequent selection procedure. All trainees must undertake the full
programme. APL or APEL does not apply.
