This event is intended for those intending to apply to graduate studies in Clinical Psychology or applying to predoctoral internship/residency programs in the United States and Canada. Attendees will learn from experienced training directors about what makes a competitive application and how to identify supervisors and programs that provide training opportunities in personality disorders. The event will have two breakout rooms (one for graduate studies applicants and a second for internship/residency applicants), and attendees will have the opportunity to ask the speakers questions. Registration is required to attend the webinar.
