College of Professional Psychology

The College of Professional Psychology was established in 1993. For over 20 years, we have been providing comprehensive programs that bridge the gap between tertiary studies and a career as a registered psychologist. Our aim is to make a positive contribution to the mental wellbeing of the wider community by expanding the capabilities and practical experience of psychologists. We achieve this by providing the most comprehensive psychology registration internship programs in Australia. We deliver a curriculum that is innovative and current whilst meeting the Psychology Board of Australia's approval. The College's Psychologists Registration Program offers a structured coursework that is practical, supportive, and flexible. It provides individual and group supervision, professional development workshops, a high level of personal and administrative support, advice on AHPRA guidelines and preparation for the PsyBA exam to provisional psychologists undertaking the 4+2 and 5+1 pathways. Our well-established programs are designed to ensure proficiency in the core capabilities and attributes required by the Psychology Board of Australia for registration as a psychologist in Australia with AHPRA.
