College of Psychology and Community Services:
Post-Doctoral Respecialization Certificate

This program is not currently accepting new students. Current students must complete their programs of study in accordance with Walden’s Time-to-Degree Completion policies.

Earning a Respecialization Certificate gives students the opportunity to gain theory and knowledge in a specialization other than the one they focused on in their degree work. Students complete a unique program of study that accounts for previous coursework and includes courses required to achieve essential knowledge in the new specialization.

Note on Licensure

The respecialization certificate is not a licensure program and does not prepare an individual to become a licensed psychology professional.

Specialization Requirements

  • Specific coursework determined by the student and the School of Psychology’s faculty chair for the specialization chosen
  • Minimum 3.0 GPA

Time to completion may vary by student, depending on individual progress and credits transferred, if applicable. For a personalized estimate of time to completion, students should call an enrollment specialist at 1-866-492-5336.
