California School of Professional Psychology's San Francisco Clinical Psychology Ph.D. Program Given Highest Level of Re-Accreditation by the American Psychological Association (APA)
By: PR Newswire Association LLC. - 14 Dec 2018Back to overview list

SAN DIEGO, Dec. 14, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The California School of Professional Psychology (CSPP) at Alliant International University's Clinical Psychology PhD degree program at its San Francisco campus has just received a 10-year re-accreditation by the American Psychological association (APA)—the highest level of re-accreditation offered by the association.

Each of Alliant's nine clinical psychology doctoral programs is accredited by the APA's Commission on Accreditation. The San Francisco program is the latest to have received the maximum re-accreditation. APA awards accreditation based on program performance. The accreditors review the curriculum, training opportunities, faculty credentials, and program resources. They also look at outcomes such as time to completion, attrition rates, and graduates' success in attaining licensure. Another important outcome is students' success in attaining internships. In 2018-19, 88% of San Francisco's Clinical Psychology PhD students are completing APA-accredited internships, and 6% are completing Association of Psychology Postdoctoral and Internship Centers (APPIC) member internships.

"This re-affirmation of the quality of our program is the latest reminder that we are continuing our legacy of impact on the eve of CSPP's 50th anniversary," said CSPP Dean Dalia Ducker, PhD.
