Psychology Postdoctoral Training
Multidisciplinary Collaboration
We partner with the VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System (VAAAHS) to jointly offer a network of postdoctoral training programs.
Advanced Training Opportunities
The U-M Department of Psychiatry and VA Ann Arbor offer four postdoctoral psychology training programs, including specialty-accredited programs in Clinical Neuropsychology and Clinical Child Psychology.
Led by J. Todd Arnedt, PhD, the network provides interdisciplinary clinical and research training, mentorship, and professional development grounded in evidence-based care, ethics, diversity, and public service.
Specialty Programs
Accreditation
The Clinical Psychology Consortium, Clinical Neuropsychology Consortium, and Clinical Child Psychology programs are accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of the American Psychological Association (APA).
The Clinical Psychology program is accredited as a 1-year program, and the Clinical Neuropsychology and Clinical Child Psychology programs are both accredited as 2-year Specialty Programs.
The SMITREC program is not accredited.
The three accredited programs are fully accredited through 2033. However, as a result of policy changes affecting VA Consortium programs, the Clinical Psychology and Clinical Neuropsychology Consortium programs are in the process of seeking independent accreditation for separate Michigan Medicine and VA Ann Arbor programs.
Questions related to the accreditation status of the programs in the Training Network should be directed to the Commission on Accreditation.
