Everyone is already aware of my perspective to the point that the moderators have informed me that I will be banned if I continue on with my support for PsyD programs. I think what will occur in the next ten to twenty years is that psychology training as a whole will become more aligned with medical school training and many medical schools will adopt the PsyD program model of training of psychologists and prescription RxP privileges will become uniform in most States.
I can see PhD trained psychologist to maintain University training but many of the professional schools will adopt a medical psychology model and many of the FSPS will be part of Private Medical Schools. Argosy is already going this direction with a Health Science School and a Law School as part of their programs.
At the risk of being banned, the PsyD is no where near the funeral stage!!!
