The field of practical psychology is extremely broad. It is applied in various spheres of human life through a huge number of different methods, technologies and techniques. This requires psychologists to have the skills to use various tools to work with customer requests, a creative approach to solving psychological problems, and creative thinking.
Practical psychology is based on the approach that any psychotechnology is heterogeneous in its composition. Therefore, it is very important for a future psychologist to get acquainted and master a wide variety of techniques, be able to combine them and integrate them into the process of working with a client. In this regard, students of Psychology and Management in Education are given the opportunity to regularly meet with psychologists who practice a wide variety of techniques: seminars, trainings, master classes and lectures.

The students involved in the game received a lot of positive emotions, a boost of energy and physical strength. By all accounts, this master class is a training for pure joy!
