Unit description
This unit extends students' capacity to apply specific organisational psychology skills in the workplace under the supervision of an Adjunct supervisor. Students will develop skills in training needs analysis, change management, and employee counselling. The placement consists of 250 hours. Students are required to complete at least a thousand hours across all placements in the program to meet accreditation requirements. The diversity of tasks and roles within organisational psychology means that even students who have repeatedly demonstrated competency may still have gaps in professional knowledge and skill that may limit their competency in some specific contexts. |
