Do you know any trainee psychologists who want to learn more about treating sleep problems?

Please invite them to attend our free online sleep psychology workshop for postgraduate psychology students in Australia.

The Sleep Psychology Workshop was created by leading sleep psychologists and psychology educators. It was designed to enhance trainee psychologists' knowledge and skills in managing sleep problems (e.g., insomnia), with research supporting its efficacy.

This event is open to all postgraduate psychology students in Australia who are training to become psychologists (e.g., students studying a Master of Professional Psychology, Master of Clinical Psychology, PhD in Clinical Psychology, Master of Educational and Developmental Psychology/ Organisational Psychology, DPsych students).

The Australasian Sleep Association is hosting this event, and postgraduate psychology students can register via their website. https://t.co/O5MSI31RBh

This event sold out in 4 days when we first opened it, so we have made more spaces available to cater for students across the country :-) @SleepOrgANZ
