Across the prison estate a number of group and individual interventions are delivered and overseen by Registered Psychologists. These are accredited by the CSAAP (Correctional Services Advice & Accreditation Panel) and therefore are bound by carefully constructed accreditation standards. In addition, on occasion there is a requirement to deliver a bespoke individual psychological intervention to some of the most complex individuals within our custody. LOT 3: Supervision Services Psychology service group in HMPPS is committed to developing our workforce so that the majority of the staff are Registered Psychologists (Forensic) with a number of Forensic Psychologist in Training posts in every region to ensure succession planning is a fluent process. At present those on a qualification route are enrolled on either the Cardiff Post Graduate Diploma in Practitioner Forensic Psychology or the BPS Qualification in Forensic Psychology (Stage 2). Supervision is a mandatory requirement for those in training and best practice for all Registered Psychologists. The demand for supervision services is variable depending on a number of factors.
