This useful and accessible guide introduces the reader to the psychological practitioner roles and offers practical advice for those looking to pursue a career in the wider psychological professions.

This book covers the entire process from moving into the profession and being a trainee to mastering the job market and making the most of your career and next steps. Bringing together these four important roles, this book offers a comprehensive overview while also allowing you to dip in and out of the chapters to access needed information quickly and easily.

Supported by an acronym decoder and real-ife, diverse case studies, this is an indispensable resource for anyone looking to understand the potential of psychologically informed careers and move into a psychological practitioner role.
