Program Summary

Program Description

ACAP’s Graduate Diploma of Professional Psychology Practice provides a sixth year of professional training in psychology for fifth-year Australian Psychology Accreditation Council (APAC) accredited psychology graduates seeking to complete the 5+1 pathway to registration. This course is offered on a trimester basis.

The Graduate Diploma of Professional Psychology Practice involves extensive hands-on psychological practice. All students are supported through regular individual and group supervision, delivered by experienced staff who are familiar with Psychology Board of Australia requirements. The professional development is explicitly designed so students can experience an alternate route to the typical 5+1 pathway, preparing them for the national psychology exam and incorporating writing case studies throughout the course.
