2. Non-accredited pathway
The non-accredited pathway gives you flexibility, with optional modules in addition to some compulsory ones. The number of credits you take is also flexible, though generally FCH students take 60 credits each year.
If you start on the non-accredited pathway you cannot later change to the accredited one.
If you want British Psychological Society accreditation, and have followed this version of the FCH pathway, one-year postgraduate programmes are available elsewhere for this.
