| Ref | Requirement (our statement of the clause) | Evidence an auditor or the regulator asks for | Common gap to check | Held (yes, partly, no, not applicable) | Where it is kept | Owner | Last reviewed | Next review |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| P-1 | An applicant for provisional registration holds a four-year accredited sequence of study in psychology completed within the last ten years (or one the Board considers substantially equivalent), is a suitable person, is not disqualified, and meets every other approved registration standard that applies to provisional registration. Source: https://www.psychologyboard.gov.au/Standards-and-Guidelines/Registration-Standards.aspx | Transcript and testamur for the four-year sequence; Application declarations and supporting evidence for the other standards | Qualification older than ten years without re-entry arrangements; Suitability declaration incomplete | ☐ yes ☐ partly ☐ no ☐ n/a | ||||
| P-2 | Provisional registration is held because the person needs it to complete one approved program: enrolment in an accredited fifth and sixth (or fifth to seventh) year qualification, a Board-approved 5+1 internship under an approved plan, a Board-approved 4+2 internship under an approved plan, or a Board-specified transitional program. Components of two pathways must not be mixed to make up a six-year sequence, and further training is not accepted as completing an approved pathway. Source: https://www.psychologyboard.gov.au/Standards-and-Guidelines/Registration-Standards.aspx | Enrolment confirmation or Board-approved internship plan; Board approval of the transitional program where applicable | Dual pathway components combined; Internship started before the plan was approved | ☐ yes ☐ partly ☐ no ☐ n/a | ||||
| P-3 | Provisional registration is maintained for the entire supervised practice program, including while an application for general registration is being decided; higher degree candidates hold it from the start of enrolment and throughout any component (coursework, placement or thesis) unless granted general registration first. It is renewed every year with a declaration that the person is completing a program that requires it. Source: https://www.psychologyboard.gov.au/Standards-and-Guidelines/Registration-Standards.aspx | Register history showing continuous provisional registration across the program; Annual renewal declarations naming the program being completed | Registration allowed to lapse during thesis writing; Practice continued after program completion without general registration | ☐ yes ☐ partly ☐ no ☐ n/a | ||||
| P-4 | A provisional psychologist on the 4+2 pathway completes, over two to five years under a Board-approved plan, the internship hours the definition sets (supervised practice in an approved work role, direct client contact, supervision with a Board-approved supervisor at the ratio required, and professional development), case reports demonstrating the core competencies, and six-monthly supervisor progress reports. The pathway closes for general registration applications on 30 June 2027. Source: https://www.psychologyboard.gov.au/Standards-and-Guidelines/Registration-Standards.aspx | Internship logbook of hours by category; Case reports and six-monthly supervisor reports; Board approval of the internship plan and any extended leave | Supervision ratio not met in some periods; Application for general registration planned after the 30 June 2027 cut-off | ☐ yes ☐ partly ☐ no ☐ n/a |
