Is a diploma in child psychology equivalent to nvq level 3?

Depends on what type of diploma or job you are looking at. If the post is aimed at a 'qualified' professional with a postgrad diploma in child or educational psychology- unfortunately this does not equal an NVQ grade. However if this the job is assisting teaching or SEN co-ordinators then I would imagine that an NVQ would be fine! Just apply anyway!!! If you are interested in child psychology and wish to further your career or knowlegde in the area I would recommend considering university, as this will open up more pathways in psychology than NVQs can currently offer. Although training to be an educational psychologist is a long process (which unfortunately requires minimun of 6 years to train), it is certainly worth it- and ed psychs are needed!
