Published with the sponsorship of the Trainers of School Psychologists, this two volume handbook examines the essential tenets of the school psychology profession, critically reviews training and practice issues, and evaluates how the traditional and changing skills and issues translate into meeting the needs of children and the systems that serve them. Volume I focuses on the professional issues and topics that form the core of the university curriculum for the school psychology specialist degree. It explores contemporary university training programs, the foundations of school education, and key areas of responsibility for school-based mental health professionals, and takes a look at the future of training for school psychologists. Specific issues such as the teaching of specialty skills and training for unique areas and special populations are also discussed. By way of raising questions and issues that ultimately play out in the field, it lays the groundwork for Volume II, which is dedicated to bridging the training and practice gap.

In many professions there are key hurdles that must be crossed before one is awarded the right to independent practice. For psychology, licensure is that critical credential - in fact, passing the Examination for Professional Practice in Psychology used both in the United States and Canada, and sponsored by the Association of State and Provincial Psychology Boards is becoming almost essential for obtaining postdoctoral non-academic employment in the field.; The examinations for licensure pose a challenge for candidates, testing a breadth and range of knowledge that can seem overwhelming for even the most highly trained individual.; A supplement to preparatory courses focusing on content, this handbook provides the reader with a wide range of organizational strategies designed to help accomplish the goal of licensure. These strategies can also be useful for those pursuing speciality certification or additional institute coursework or training.; In addition to analyzing and reviewing long-term study and test-taking techniques, this work gives practical advice on how a person can design a study programme and keep to it, especially when faced with conflicting real-world commitments. It also shows how to set priorities and refine survival skills - in short, how and when an individual should properly prepare for the licensure exam.
