PsychFLOW Suite Coming Soon

Find your next
5+1 or Higher Degree placement.

Provisional psychologists currently waste months cold-emailing clinics hoping to land an internship β€” with no central directory of approved sites. Internship is a curated marketplace where AHPRA-approved practices advertise positions and trainees apply directly within PsychFLOW.

The Problem

There is no central directory of AHPRA-approved internship sites in Australia. Provisional psychologists find placements entirely through word-of-mouth and university noticeboards β€” and have no visibility of supervision coverage, specialty fit, or available positions before making contact.

βœ…
The Solution

A curated two-sided marketplace: practices advertise positions with supervisor details and specialty areas; trainees search, filter, and apply in-app. Accepted placements formalise with a digital Internship Agreement and activate the trainee's Logbook automatically.

Key features

The only structured marketplace for AHPRA-approved 5+1 Internship and Higher Degree placements across Australia.

βœ…
AHPRA-Approved Site Badge
Practices self-declare approved site status β€” Phase 2 adds verification against the AHPRA approved site register.
πŸ‘©β€πŸ«
Supervisor-Linked Listings
Every internship listing must have a Board-approved supervisor profile attached β€” trainees know supervision is confirmed before applying.
πŸ—ΊοΈ
Location & Telehealth
Filter by state, suburb radius, or telehealth-capable β€” includes rural and regional positions with remote supervision.
πŸŽ“
Program Type Filter
5+1 Internship and Higher Degree placement β€” correct Psychology Board pathway terminology, no 4+2 references.
πŸ’°
Remuneration Filter
Paid vs. unpaid positions clearly flagged β€” important for trainees who cannot afford unpaid placements.
πŸ“‹
Structured Application
In-app application with CV upload, cover statement, and optional Logbook hours summary (aggregate only β€” no clinical content).
✍️
Digital Internship Agreement

From application to active placement in one flow.

Internship takes a trainee from search through application, offer, Internship Agreement signing, and placement activation β€” all within PsychFLOW. The moment the agreement is signed, the trainee's Logbook activates with the correct program type, start date, and supervisor.

  • Application pipeline: Received β†’ Shortlisted β†’ Interview β†’ Offered
  • Digital Internship Agreement via Sign & Lock
  • Placement activation writes to Logbook automatically
  • Supervisor load counter in Find a Supervisor increments

Equity at the core.

Internship has built-in equity filters because access to placement is not equal across Australia. Rural and regional trainees face higher barriers, CALD trainees need culturally safe supervisors, and trainees who cannot afford unpaid placements need a clear filter.

  • Telehealth placements visible to rural/regional trainees
  • Paid placement filter
  • Cultural safety provisions declared by each clinic
  • Language matching for non-English supervision
