Événements passés

SALON DE L’EMPLOI DE 2023

La Société canadienne de psychologie (SCP), en collaboration avec la Société canadienne des sciences du cerveau, du comportement et de la cognition (SCSCCC), a organisé un salon de l’emploi le vendredi 12 janvier 2023.

Les étudiants participant à l’événement ont eu l’occasion de se renseigner sur les différents parcours professionnels et les postes offerts aux diplômés en psychologie en dehors des milieux cliniques et universitaire, de la bouche même des personnes qui occupent ces postes; ils auront également la possibilité d’interagir avec ces personnes à partir de salles de réunion virtuelles. Enfin, ils ont pu écouter les employeurs et discuter avec eux des compétences que possèdent les diplômés en psychologie et qui sont les plus recherchées par les employeurs.
