Summary:"Welcome to Volume 5 of the five-volume APA Handbook of Clinical Psychology. This volume on education, training, and the profession has been exciting to assemble. We have the privilege of standing back and viewing the totality of the educational experience in clinical psychology as portrayed through these chapters. In the process, we have been reminded that graduate education in clinical psychology lays the groundwork for one's professional journey. Advanced formal education provides the rich environment in which clinical psychologists begin to differentiate their professional identities, and individualized forms of education anchor their participation in one of the most vibrant, evolving, and unpredictable professions. We invite our readers to enter this volume at any point; however, we hope that you will avail yourselves of its entirety and its chronological sequence. Our goal is to convey the breadth of education in clinical psychology and the selective training experiences across entire careers. This volume paints a landscape of the integral continuing presence of education, not only the influence of formal preparatory education but also the impact of ongoing learning"--Publicity materials.
