To become a School Psychologist, a Masters in Psychology is required? Is it easy to get a job in this area of Psychology and will it be a full-time, secured position? I'm worried about the security because I once read and heard a few years ago that the government usually cuts back on Psychologists (well, in Canada) so I'm wondering if it's a guaranteed, steady, monday-friday (or extra hours if required) career? But I heard on the news a few days ago that the government will be hiring more School Psychologists. Can someone pls. shed some light on this and the security of the job in the future? I had a School Psychologist working at my high school and went to speak to her about the nature of the job, education required, etc, and one of the things she told me was that School Psychologists make about $77,000 a year. I believed her, but that was about 2 years ago so I'm wondering if this is still true today. School Psychologists work in high schools, middle schools, and where else? What else can I do with a Masters in Psychology? Thanks in advance for your replies.
