Great discussion Re the EP role, & representation. Mainly people who are supported by parents or partners able to apply. Limiting diversity. I waited ~15 years to apply as 1yr masters changed to 3 yr doctorate. I’d stayed as P/T so the training fees were nearly a match to my income.

This is a great interview exploring what educational psychology is all about. I enjoyed hearing about their journeys into EP world and reflecting on positionality and representation as EPs. Made me definitely think about when I might or might not use my Dr title in the future! #edpsychs

"Let's start there"... the conversation around "Dr"... So important. I love hearing Jason's thoughts, so it's great to have a long form conversation here. Also, really appreciated Shyla's "you still can" when Yannick said "I thought I might want to be an EP". Let's not take things off the table ☀️
