AJ,
My qualifications are a degree from Goldsmith's, London Uni. (which frankly is useless as a qualification for Applied Psychology as it is all theory and no application); I am also a qualified Transactional Analyst, a qualified Jungian analyst, a qualified Master Practitioner of NLP - and a few other minor qualifications but I think the point is made.
By the way . . . the two very best and most highly skilled applied psychologists in the world today do NOT have any formal qualification in the sense that you would recognise it - you may wish to consider the difference between ability to DO a skill and the ability to memorise enough facts to get a degree. A prime example is the fact that the world's most highly qualified economist and business experts are not the world's richest men.
I gave my qualifications, as you asked for them - but I felt you should consider that you were asking the wrong question.
A final comment - I stand behind both Haystacks and Angi in their last posts above.

Hi gurumaister,
I thought so much i.e.your qualifications are worthless.
I am a professor of nuclear physics - I have degrees from the Martian college
of atomic energy and Pluto college of enriched uranium.

Try Google.
On edit: However, be warned, I turned up this little gem. Read on.
Take psychotherapist Zoe D. Katze.
"You had your cat certified by the American Psychotherapy Association?" Acosta asked.
"Correct," replied owner Steven Eichel, who is a psychologist.
All it took was an application and a doctored resume. Why the charade? To prove that it's too easy for amateurs to be certified as psychotherapists. Like one man who was caught flaunting false credentials in an undercover video.
"It doesn't matter what their background is," noted Acosta.
"Apparently it doesn't matter what species they are," Eichel said.
The real experts warn it's up to patients to check credentials on state Web sites, and challenge treatment methods.
"Unfortunately, individuals who have mental health problems can be in a very vulnerable state," said Russ Newman, director of the American Psychology Association. "That's one reason why a lot education needs to take place."

Indeed you are correct, AJ. My qualifications (in themsleves) are totally useless except to throw at people like you whose first question is to ask what my qualifications are. My skills, I hope, are not useless.
I shall now depart this thread as it is starting to bore me and I have shares to examine.

The signature 'aj' is incorrect. The correct word is 'Tosser'.

Might be a false economy with that idea, MM. If ajren signed up for the Pay Per View, I dread to thing how many people would leave.

Nice idea. I'm sure that Ian's lurking. Maybe he'll put the idea forwards to Doris.
