REGULATING PSYCHOLOGISTS IN NOVA SCOTIA SINCE 1980

A question regarding eligibility to supervise: A psychologist (CCed) is willing to be one of my NSBEP supervisors for my candidate registrar year. As I am declaring competency in neuro and clinical psychology, I will be seeking out supervisors for both areas.

The psychologist is already supervising a candidate registrar for NSBEP. We wanted to make sure the psychologist is allowed to have two supervises for NSBEP? Do let us know!
