This practice-based module builds upon developing competencies from PSYC8015 in a further systemically-informed placement which may include working with children and young people, families, teams/organisations, and individuals with cognitive or communication needs.

This module places a specific focus on continuing to develop BPS (2025) competencies in assessment, formulation, intervention and evaluation from a range of possible models (e.g. CBT, systemic, neuropsychology) and modes of intervention with clients from a range of backgrounds and presentations. Furthermore, there is an emphasis on adapting style of communication and content to meet the differing cognitive, sensory and developmental needs of clients (e.g. children, neurodiversity, intellectual disabilities). Trainees will continue to develop skills in using formulations with individuals and teams to meaningfully inform decision-making and guide interventions, which may use of practice-based evidence in the absence of an appropriate evidence-base or determining that an intervention may be inappropriate or ineffective. All of these competencies will continue to be underpinned by working within an anti-racist/anti-discrimination framework whilst considering issues of difference, diversity, culture, power and social/structural inequity.

Trainees are expected to attend placement in person, but may also be required to work in other placement settings or remotely. Trainees must ensure that over 50% of their direct clinical activity and time on placement, across the whole of training, is completed in person.

This practice-based module aims to consolidate skills and competencies developed during the first two years of training to meet the level of clinical competence required for completion of the Doctoral Programme in Clinical Psychology and HCPC registration as a Clinical Psychologist. The specific placement setting will be determined by Trainees competency development to date and their special interests in terms of client group, specialism or service type.

This module places a specific focus on continuing to develop BPS (2025) competencies in working within an emergent transdiagnostic context, using formulation to understand team/organisational behaviours, demonstrate leadership (informed by relevant models and theory), and gain experience providing supervision, consultancy, teaching and communicating expert psychological opinions to relevant stakeholders to influence practice and support others in applying psychological theory/skills. Trainees are expected to be working at an appropriate level of autonomy and to be exercising independent professional judgement within appropriate legal and professional boundaries. Trainees should also have gained significant experience and competence across all BPS core competencies. All of these competencies will continue to be underpinned by working within an anti-racist/anti-discrimination framework whilst considering issues of difference, diversity, culture, power and social/structural inequity, as well as a commitment to continue to challenge and address these inequalities post-qualification.

Trainees are expected to attend placement in person, but may also be required to work in other placement settings or remotely. Trainees must ensure that over 50% of their direct clinical activity and time on placement, across the whole of training, is completed in person.

The placement setting will be determined by the need to ensure that the trainee is able to gain a level of clinical competence (as defined by the Log of Clinical Competence) appropriate for completion of the Doctoral Programme in Clinical Psychology and application for entry to the HCPC register of Practitioner Psychologists. Consideration will also be given to the trainee’s desire to gain experience of work with a specific client group or in specialist clinical skills.

This third-year options module introduces students to the principles and analytical methods that underpin precision health, with a focus on modelling clinical risk and uncertainty using statistical and machine learning techniques. Building on foundational biomedical and computational knowledge, students will explore key health datasets, calibrated risk estimation models, and approaches for quantifying and communicating uncertainty in real-world healthcare settings. Through practical examples and state-of-the-art applications, they will learn how bias, missingness, and evidence quality affect model reliability and how uncertainty-aware methods support safe, informed decision-making in precision health.
