How to become a Child Psychologist in Ontario, Canada?

Question

Anyone in Canada knows the details of study required to become a Child Psychologist in Ontario, Canada, in terms of what specific qualifications need to get? If any information or pointers, in whatever details, is so much appreciated. The reason I ask is I am looking at BA(4-year) Child & Youth Care program at Ryerson Unviersity, and thinking of doing Master Degree after that, then PhD. I want to avoid the BA of Psychology program in whatever university, as the program usually is just theoretical for 4 years, without any internship or hands-on practice. So I'm not sure if BA in CYC can allow me to move on to become a Child Psychologist eventually. Have asked Universities, but can't get advice much from them.

Answer 1

Here's the link I gave you in your other post. Universities often aren't helpful in terms of explaining the registration process. You need to contact the Ontario Psychological Association and they will explain the registration requirements and then you can use that information to figure out what will be acceptable as undergraduate work. Best of luck.

Answer 2

you are able to desire to alter right into a Psychologist before you are able to substitute right into a baby Psychologist. Careers in baby psychology oftentimes require doctoral stages. This training includes the basics of psychology relating baby progression, such through fact the learn of classic theorists, including Freud and Piaget. some coursework in baby psychology would comprise tutorial learn of pharmacology. as with any doctoral classes, baby psychology will require demonstrating study skills in a written doctoral thesis.
