Dear All
Here is an outline of issues relevant to postgraduates/trainees in health
psychology that were discussed at the DHP committee meeting on 24 August.
Employment:
DHP plan to conduct a survey of opportunities for employment of health
psychologists in health promotion.
An open day is to be held next year at the BPS London offices for
representatives of the Department of Health and research funding bodies in
the aim of promoting health psychology and improving employment prospects of
postgraduates.
DHP Annual Conferences:
DHP wish to encourage student participation through offering bursaries and
reduced fees for conference attendance.
AGM reports:
Reports on the committee activities during the past year as well as DHP aims
and objectives have been compiled and will be presented at the Canterbury
conference.
Web site:
The DHP web site (www.healthpsychology.care4free.net) is to be updated.
A postgraduate web site is to be hyperlinked to the DHP site. In terms of
the content of the latter, I am suggesting the following: guide to MSc
courses,jobs, update on conferences, training courses.
Please suggest/comment on the above and I shall start working on this,
hopefully informed by your feedback.
Best wishes
Dejana
Postgraduate Representative to DHP
