The CNVAMC is committed to the recruitment and training of diverse postdoctoral Fellows. Consistent with the APA Commission on Accreditation, we define cultural and individual differences

and diversity as including, but not limited to, age, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, language, national origin, race, religion, culture, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic

status. Applications from qualified minority individuals are encouraged. Individuals who wish to be considered in part on the basis of a diversity variable should indicate their interest in

the cover letter of their application. Interested applicants should submit their materials online via APPIC’s centralized application service (APPA-CAS). To apply, candidates should submit

the following: 1. A cover letter. Please specify if you are applying to the Interprofessional track or Military Sexual Trauma track (or both). 2. A copy of your Curriculum Vita. 3. A letter

from the Chair of your Dissertation Committee describing the progress of your dissertation and anticipated defense date if not yet complete, or confirming successful completion. 4. Three

letters of recommendation from supervisors who are directly familiar with your clinical work. At least one letter must be from an internship supervisor. If your dissertation Chair is

providing one of your letters, they may address your dissertation status within that letter. A separate, fourth letter on this subject is not required in that circumstance. 5. An official

transcript of your graduate work DEADLINES: APPLICATIONS MUST BE RECEIVED ONLINE BY DECEMBER 13, 2024 TO RECEIVE CONSIDERATION. The Director of Postdoctoral Training and select members of

the Training Committee will review all submitted applications in detail and will select some candidates for interviews. All applicants will be notified of their interview status by e-mail at
