Hi there, I am a working Social Educator in Switzerland and possess a Master's Degree in Educational Psychology form a renowned University. Since I stopped my practice as Psychologist in 2012, started to work as Social Educator and enjoy the contact to my target group so much more ( psychiatry clients and disabled adults, Special Needs students and deliquent youth), I want to apply for the skilled Professional Visa but work as I do in Switzerland. I speak advanced French and English, backed up with certification ( plus German and Portuguese as 1st languages). If anyone has concrete advices or information, I'd appreciate it!
Masters in Educational Psychology, but not practicing is valid nevertheless?
