- The Infant Observation course will run longer than 2 years because candidates are advised to budget for at least one term to locate an infant, and the observation must cover two years of development. The observation must have started before TP1 can commence.
- Training patient requirements: 2 TPs are seen on a weekly basis with usual holiday breaks (approx 40 sessions a year). One TP is seen for 12 months minimum and one for 18 months minimum. 6 month regular reports are written on each patient. The first TP commences no sooner than Y2, once the trainee is considered ready. Permission for second TP can be sought after the first 6 month report on TP1 is accepted.
- Supervision 1 and Supervision 2 are planned as small group seminars, online with termly in-person meetings, and the cost is included in tuition.
