  Purpose statement: In an increasingly global and diverse society, psychologists face the ongoing challenge of ensuring that our educational and clinical theories and practises are adapted to suit diverse client and student populations. The Diversity Resource Base provides information to both members of the university community and the community at large through books, journal articles and a web-site. These deal with clinical and professional aspects of diversity in its broadest sense including age, gender, ethnocultural, sexual orientation and ability. We hope that these materials will be used to inform curricula and teaching models; provide a context for application; and create partnerships between community, research, and practitioners.

• CCTC/APPIC Model Policy on Trainee Interpersonal Competence — This model policy relates to comprehensive expectations and evaluations of competence, including interpersonal, self-awareness, and openness, for example. 
• CCTC Guidelines — for communication between graduate programs and internship programs
• ADPTC Practicum Competencies document — This document was developed by the Association of Directors of Training Clinics (ADAPT). It provides a detailed description of evolving competencies expected during practicum training in psychology and can serve as an excellent foundation for program goal-setting and evaluation formats. It is also useful for internship training development. The Association welcomes its widespread use and feedback on its improvement.
• APPIC Training Document Samples — APPIC's website supplies a variety of sample policies, surveys, self-studies, and evaluation documents.
