Is there any accreditation better than BPS or BSCP for clinical psychology in the UK that I can get to work in Indian hospitals?
No, for working as a clinical psychologist in Indian hospitals, the crucial accreditation is Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI) recognition. UK accreditations like BPS (British Psychological Society) or BSCP are respected in the UK but do not directly qualify you to practice in India.
To work in India after a UK degree, your qualification must be recognized or registered with RCI. This usually means completing an RCI-approved course in India or having your foreign degree evaluated and approved by RCI.
Leap can guide you on aligning your UK qualifications with Indian requirements and the RCI registration process.
