Hi all
I was just curious as to what the (general) educational standards for a psychologist in the US were?
In Australia it's a 4yr undergraduate degree in psychology (or 3yr equiv. with a 4th year in psyc). That allows for conditional registration as a psychologist. To get full registration you either have to do 2yrs of supervised practice or undertake a 2yr masters degree in psychology.
Always curious about standards in other countries....
