This Program offers psychologists with doctoral degrees in areas other than Clinical
and School Psychology the opportunity to respecialize in Clinical and School Psychology
so that they may ethically practice in these areas. Respecialization candidates
are given programs that meet the APA guidelines which require that psychologists
who wish to change their service specialty, or add an additional area of applied
specialization must meet the same requirements with respect to subject matter
and professional skills that apply to doctoral training in the new specialty.
The program of each candidate is individualized and all credit is given for relevant
course work and requirements that have been satisfied previously.
