Mentour

Psychology
Student Placement Program

What are the areas covered?

MENTOUR is unique in that our program arranges placements and clinical training aiming the trainees to get optimum level of clinical competencies during the time they are engaged in the program rather than just participating clinical sessions. As such we work with the trainees to review their theoretical knowledge necessary for clinical work (didactic) in the early stage of the program and set goals for the practical sessions with the supervisors. So, they attend with a clear purpose and have the opportunity to develop their practical skills during the placement at the health institutes (practicum) which happens mostly in the latter part of the program.
