The licensing process for psychologists can be very challenging, particularly for Olim psychologists transferring degrees from overseas. This workshop is designed to provide a clear overview of the requirements and licensing process, with a focus on dispelling confusion surrounding practicing as a registered psychologist without a license, and the legal requirements governing practice as an unlicensed psychologist in Israel. We will designate time at the end of the workshop to provide you with the opportunity to share your unique experience and challenges related to the licensing process and Q.&A.
NOTE: This workshop is for psychologists who do not yet have their hitmachut.
The workshop will be recorded, but live participation is encouraged.
