Great to hear of those being offered interviews for DEdPsy programmes. Good luck to all. If you were looking for some lived experience of the process of becoming a Trainee EP you might be interested in this PsychBites episode!

Really enjoyed recording this episode with Dan. A lot of food for thought around what types of evidence we might be using in practice and what biases might exist… I’ll ignore the confusion Star Wars and Star Trek @psychbites.bsky.social, but I will prepare some essential reading / watching for you!
