About this Event

Psychologists function in a world of increasing professional accountability and potential litigation. A core competency required of all psychologists is an understanding of ethical, legal and professional matters. This is a practical and “hands on” workshop to equip you with knowledge and skills related to different aspects of professional practice for both those in the public sector and private practice.

Some of the areas considered include:·

Informed consent
Privacy and information
Records and notes
Communicating with others
Breaching confidentiality

Professional boundaries and relationships
Legal considerations
Dealing with Subpoenas
Negligence and going to court
Managing risk and scary scenarios

This course is very helpful to provisional and new psychologists but is relevant to all psychologists interested in maintaining high standards of professional practice whether in private practice or in employee roles.
