Improve your knowledge of clinical neuropsychology for professional CPD or to count toward the 'knowledge' component of the adult clinical neuropsychology Specialist Register of Clinical Neuropsychologists (SRCN), with our British Psychological Society (BPS) accredited postgraduate diploma.
The course is delivered 100% online and is supported on an attractive and easy-to-navigate online learning platform, with a variety of learning materials. You will have access to pre-recorded lectures and podcasts, live webinars, interactive and facilitated student activities, discussions in online study groups, and fully accessible e-reading lists, including online journals and e-books, and other web-based media and resources.
The course is structured in its learning design and timeframes (3-week periods) in which you will complete certain segments of themed content and activities.
What's more, this course is largely self-directed and self-paced so you can adapt to fit your schedule, employment, and lifestyle.
Those who qualify can continue onto further study on the Salomons Institute PGCert Clinical Neuropsychology Practice, thereby completing the route to the SRCN.
You will be assessed using a number of formats designed to tap into the different skills that highly relate to skills and competencies that are required or useful in employment in clinical neuropsychology.
These include timed ‘take home’ exams when being assessed on acquired knowledge, clinical case reports when being assessed on clinical competency, topic papers or ‘strategic’ literature reviews based around your professional goals and your ability to find out and critically appraise new information, and your participation in the online ‘study group’ community.
