Organisational psychology incorporates the field of psychology applied to organisations and the workplace. The world of work is an essential component to our day to day life, and being able to understand the relationship between ourselves and the workplace is very important; this is the role of organisational psychology.

Those who work in organisational psychology perform a wide range of tasks, including studying worker attitudes and behaviour, the evaluation companies, and the provision leadership training. The overall goal of this field is to study and understand human behaviour in the workplace.

The Course delivers a wide syllabus of topics to provide students with an introduction to this subject area. Each of the modules in this course aims to develop student awareness of the complexities and subtleties of the psychological aspects involved in the world of work. Students will develop insight into aspects of business psychology such as people-related aspects of management. These include motivation, leadership, working in teams, the future of work and methodological aspects and ethics of carrying out research in this area.

Students will gain knowledge and skills which are valued by potential employers and help to better understand the world of work whether currently working or considering a career or further study in this particular field. The course is made up of ten modules and concludes with a final online examination.


 Course Key Topics


the Organisational Psychology (Level 3) course is divided into 10 modules.

Module 1: What is Organisational Psychology?
This module provides an introduction to the evolution of Organisational Psychology from the Ancient Greeks to the modern day. It also examines definitions of Organisational Psychology and explores the training and kinds of work undertaken by practitioners of the discipline. The module forms a basis for remaining modules that examine the physical and psychological aspects of the working environment.

Module 2: Personality and Individual Differences
Psychology has been involved in the selection of personnel for many years. Various approaches of selecting personnel have been developed. Even in the time of the Ancient Greeks, it has been apparent that attempts have been made to sort people by their personality and general temperament, and in the modern day, this technique is also used in Business Psychology. Various psychometric measures have been used and several of these will be examined in this module. Conclusions are considered regarding their effectiveness in predicting job success. The module also considers alternative ways of examining job success nowadays.

Module 3: Work motivation and satisfaction
This module focuses on theories of motivation. Motivation is a key aspect of behavioural psychology because it provides insight into why people choose to work, why certain people work harder than others and how employers can increase motivation in the workforce. In this module, several theories of motivation are examined, all of which aim to explain motivational behaviour in the workplace The complexity of explaining motivation – or indeed lack of motivation – is discussed, and assumptions are challenged.

Module 4: Stress at work
It is well known that stress is a feature of modern life and the causes of stress are diverse. The sources of stress most commonly found in the workplace are explored, together with approaches to stress control and prevention. Stress is recognised globally as a condition that can affect all categories of workers, in all types of jobs living in all types of social environments. A certain level of stress can be motivating, as it helps people motivate themselves to complete a job well, but stress is also recognised as a major contributor to behaviour change, psychological dysfunction and serious health problems. Stress, therefore, can have a major impact both on people’s lives and the lives of people around them. The module examines the impact of modern stressors that include job impermanency, short-term contracts and technological advances.

Module 5: Organisations and conflict
It is acknowledged that staff members need to feel safe and valued. It may be challenging to accomplish positive working relationships; persistence has been shown to pay dividends in terms of staff morale and turnover. While competition is a necessary part of some jobs, there are situations where competition can lead to breakdowns in communication between individuals and within groups. The module examines ways in which managers can eliminate or reduce difficulties and increase co-operation in the workplace. In doing this, motivation and satisfaction of the workforce are enhanced.

Module 6: Group behaviour
Most people work as part of teams. Theoretical approaches to understanding group behaviour are evaluated in this module. Relationships with others can be a source of pleasure – or a source of tension and conflict; this module examines group behaviour and also suggests useful strategies that managers may use to assist people in improving social interaction in workplace settings. Reported incidences of bullying and violence in the workplace are on the increase and Organisational Psychology addresses such issues. This module will examine strategies of how to reduce tension and conflict in the work place by providing guidelines to successful team working.

Module 7: Leadership
This module reviews and evaluates major theories of leadership and summarises findings from relevant research. Since leadership involves the exercise of influence by one person over others, the quality of leadership exhibited by supervisors is a critical determinant of organisational success. The historical evolution of leadership research is explained so that students can be more familiar with past and present models of leadership. The particular qualities associated with successful leadership are examined.

Module 8: Managing change in organisations
Over recent years, the world of work has changed beyond recognition because of wide-ranging social and economic challenges. This has meant that increasingly, organisations with stable markets in the past may be facing economic competition from new and different sources. This module examines the reasons why organisations must continue to change and adapt to meet future challenges if they are to survive and thrive. The impact of change on the workforce is explored and insight provided into resistance to change and the challenges for management when changes are considered.

Module 9: Research methods and ethics
The rules of scientific research inform the definition and search for knowledge in the field of applied organisational behaviour. In this module, students gain a basic knowledge of research methodology in order that they can understand the importance of critical evaluation of both the research process and also the theories presented in the course. Additionally, students are introduced to ethical issues involved in carrying out research in the workplace setting. The differences between academic and applied research are explained.

Module 10: Future of work
This module considers the future of work. Changes and challenges that face both employees and employers nowadays and in the future are examined. It is stressed that organisations operate within a changing economic, social and political framework. Working life now and in the future is very different from previous times, and ability to adapt as needs arise is key to success. Students also gain understanding of the impact of globalisation and insight into the importance of management and employee development in this context.

Career Profile - Occupational Psychologist


Career Profile


Occupational psychologists focus on how people behave at work in order to increase their productivity, job satisfaction and the overall effectiveness of an organisation or business

As an occupational psychologist you’ll apply psychological knowledge, theory and practice to organisational issues in the workplace, such as culture and change, as well as issues at an individual or team level.

Focusing on employee performance, behaviour, health and wellbeing and how individuals, groups and organisations function, your aim is to improve the effectiveness of the organisation and employee job satisfaction.

Your work overlaps with a range of areas including ergonomics, personnel management and time management. Collaboration is common with management, human resources officers and training and development officers, careers advisers and management consultants, business coaches, ergonomists and psychologists, trade union representatives and staff, both in teams and individually.

You can work in a consultancy role or in-house as an employee of an organisation.

Responsibilities
As an Occupational Psychologist, you’ll need to:

* counselling and personal development
* design of work environments
* employee relations and motivation
* human-machine interaction
* job design
* occupational wellbeing
* organisational development and change
* performance appraisal, coaching and career development
* psychometric assessment
* recruitment and selection
* training, learning and development.

Depending on your area of work, you may need to:

* develop, implement or evaluate employee selection procedures, including psychometric tests, situational judgement questionnaires, assessment centre exercises and structured interviews
* develop talent management processes and systems so organisations can identify and develop their high-potential employees
* provide coaching, guidance and advice to employees or students in order to help them plan and manage their careers
* design performance appraisal systems that enable an organisation to measure, manage and reward the performance of its employees
* work one-to-one with individuals to support them in becoming more successful and effective in delivering their organisational objectives, while also enhancing their personal wellbeing
* analyse the training needs of employees, identify skills gaps and determine how to address that gap in a cost-effective manner
* design, develop and deliver training and development programmes
* mediate in situations where there is conflict between employees and management or an employment dispute
* help to improve industrial relations by working with both management and trade union representatives
* design, develop and implement initiatives aimed at helping employees to cope successfully with changes taking place in their workplace, such as restructuring, downsizing or new business processes
* assess the usability and functionality of a system, such as a computer or workstation, and make recommendations for improvements to ensure ease of use for the operator
* investigate problems that arise and accidents that occur as a result of poorly designed human-machine interfaces
* review the ergonomic design of a workplace by assessing the suitability of elements such as lighting, noise levels and furniture and provide recommendations for changes or improvements
* work with engineers and designers to provide input into the design of equipment, like vehicles and workspaces.

Salary

* Starting salaries can be around £20,000 to £29,000 per annum, depending on your experience.
* Salaries for more experienced occupational psychologists can range from around £35,000 to £50,000. At senior level, salaries may rise to in excess of £80,000.
* Salaries can vary significantly depending on the setting you work in and whether you work publicly or privately.

Jobs in public sector organisations such as the NHS and Civil Service will typically follow a structured grading system. Private sector organisations, particularly management consultancies, tend to pay more than the public or third sectors and academia. Take a look at job adverts to get a feel for current salaries.

Additional benefits will depend on the sector you work in and type of employer, but may include private medical insurance, life insurance and a car allowance.

Income figures are intended as a guide only.

Working Hours

Working hours are generally 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday, although you may occasionally have to work longer hours.

What to expect

* You may work on-site with a client, at a training or management development centre or at your company’s offices.
* You may work with employees and managers at all levels, as well as a range of other professionals such as trade union representatives, trainers, counsellors and HR staff.
* Jobs are available throughout the UK. Self-employment and freelance work is common for psychologists with substantial experience in a specialist area. You’ll need to build up a good client base before becoming freelance.
* Consultants must respond to client needs. This often means working to tight deadlines. Business clients usually expect you to dress professionally.
* If you’re self-employed, you’ll need to travel to visit clients. There may be opportunities in larger consultancies to work overseas with multinational client companies.

Skills

You’ll need to have:

* excellent communication and interpersonal skills in order to convince clients of your abilities, inspire their trust and gain information
* report and proposal writing skills
* adaptability and flexibility
* problem-solving ability
* self-confidence, with the ability to deal with a variety of people
* the ability to influence other professions, managers and staff, who may be sceptical or resistant about what you’re offering
* the ability to work collaboratively and also to lead a team
resilience and a positive attitude
* the ability to work under pressure – you’ll need to achieve results within fixed deadlines while working on a number of projects
* pragmatism
* commercial awareness
* the ability to show that your work has practical and worthwhile benefits over a relatively short timescale
* IT skills as you will use online assessment platforms to manage projects
* a proactive and creative approach to work in order to come up with and create imaginative training packages and solutions to work-based issues, for example.

You’ll also need competence in psychometrics or statistical analysis for some posts.

Career prospects

In general, occupational psychology doesn’t have a clear-cut career path and it’s often down to you to determine how your career progresses. With the right combination of skills, knowledge and experience, there are opportunities to progress to senior posts, leading teams or projects. If you’re working for a small unit, you may need to change job to progress your career.

If you’re working for the Civil Service as part of the Government Occupational Psychology Profession you’ll have access to a range of learning, qualifications and opportunities to help develop your skills and career. You’ll be able to progress through the grades as you gain experience and knowledge.

It’s also possible to pursue an academic career either after a period as a practitioner or by doing research for a Doctoral degree after a Masters and gaining a post as a university lecturer or researcher.

While occupational psychology provides a breadth of experience in several areas, many related professions, such as occupational health and safety, ergonomics and human resources (HR), have their own qualification structures and training programmes. Taking further related qualifications, such as professional diplomas and short courses, may open more doors to you.

As an experienced occupational psychologist, you may choose to move into self-employment and set up your own consultancy business.

Course Qualification - What qualification will I receive?

This is a dual-certification course and you will therefore receive two qualifications. This course is certified by Open Learning College via the Open Pathway Accreditation Programme.

This course leads to a Level 3 for successful learners. This means that it is independently accredited at a level of learning equivalent to level 3 on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF) for England.

This qualification has been developed by Open Learning College to meet the specific needs of our learners and has been accredited by QLS demonstrating the learning activity has reached the required Quality Licence Scheme standards and benchmarks.

The Quality Licence Scheme recognises a provider’s commitment to high-quality courses in the non-regulated sector, by evaluating quality processes and endorsing an organisation. This demonstrates to the people you work with that there is a commitment to delivering a high quality of learning and learners are able to receive an endorsed Certificate of Achievement upon completion of their course.

2. You will receive the Open Pathway Accreditation Diploma (OPA.dip) from Open Learning College.



Grading & How it Works

The UK has a unique higher education grading system. Its most unique feature compared to traditional grading systems is that it aims to be more specific in describing students’ academic achievement.

This type of assessment method is highly valued because it offers many advantages. Most importantly it highlights your academic strengths and specific skills, therefore, it helps employers gain a better understanding of your true potential.

Since it is proved to be such an efficient tool to assess students’ performance, many foreign countries like Canada, Australia and India are using the same grading system on some occasions with small changes to fit into their own local educational context.

We use a letter grade scale from A to F to indicate the students’ academic performance. If you get an A it means you have shown outstanding knowledge whereas if you get an F it means your score is not sufficient to pass the exam.
