Postgraduate Diploma in Psychology هذه الدورة تدرس باللغة الإنجليزية

تفاصيل الدورة

Our Psychology Conversion Postgraduate Diploma was the first online conversion course to be accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS) and is a popular choice for those wishing to obtain Graduate Basis for Chartership (GBC) to move on to further study in a specialist area of psychology.

It will provide you with a comprehensive coverage of the core areas of psychology required by the BPS. This enables you to meet one of the entry requirements and allows you to continue with more specialised postgraduate training in areas such as Health, Sports, Clinical, Educational or Forensic psychology, bringing you one step closer towards becoming a chartered psychologist.
