Thanks for this! I’ve been teaching and working self-employed for 5 years in mental health and trauma recovery - just got an unconditional offer for a Masters in Psychology (to convert) and now looking at the pathway for a PhD for EdPsy work! This is really helpful. Good luck on your journey ❤

@@mypsychjourneyabroad thank you so much - you too!

You're super inspiring! Thank you so much for sharing about your journey of becoming an educational psychologist! I am currently applying for Msc psychology conversion in the UK as well. Just waiting for the admission from the universities. I haven't decided if I want to take a path of educational or occupational yet but your insights have been really helpful to think about. All the best for you! 🥰

Hi!

Thank you

hi I am a nurse how can I become a EPS?

Thanks for this! I was wondering if trainees get paid during their work experience along side doctorate studying course or is it only paid after becoming an educational psychologist? I am from a different country and in here, trainees and interns especially in psychology are not paid at all.

Hello! if they comply certain pre-requisites before starting the course that are mainly related to their nationality/residency status! You can read more about these pre-requisites in the official website: www.gov.uk/student-finance/who-qualifies

Hello, thank you for this video! I had one doubt though. I am from India and I have received offers from a few universities for MSc in Educational Psychology. I am planning on doing a Ph.D. After that But I am not sure about the UK residency part. Could you please guide me through this? What needs to be done to get a permit to work in the UK after master's for international students ? How to go about it? Thank you !

Hello! Thank you for your question and congrats for getting those offers ! So a PHD is different than a doctorate. A PHD is mainly theoretical and research-oriented, and you don't need to do one to become a Qualified EP, but what you do need (at least in the UK) is a doctorate , which is a 3-year programme meant to be more practical (with work placements, 2 per year, 6 in total) and you will also be doing research but in order to apply it to specific professional settings. So if you get an unconditional offer to do an MSc in Educational Psychology, you can work, whilst studying (that is, with your student visa) for up to 20 hours per week (if your masters is full time), and once your course is finished, you have 2 routes: get a sponsored role, or get the postgraduate visa that allows you to work with no sponsorship (there are actually other options like starting your own business and getting a start-up visa or so, which you can check in my video called 'Pathways after graduation'!), but if you mainly want to work for an employer after completing your masters then the 2 most common routes are those (i.e.., getting a sponsorship or getting the post-grad visa and working without the need of a sponsorship :) Hope I answered your question
