In affiliation with the University of Toronto, training for both career track child psychiatrists and general psychiatrists is provided as part of the training program of the Division of Child Psychiatry at the University.

Formal placements also are provided to child and youth work students, social work students, and graduate-level psychology students from a number of colleges and universities. Predoctoral clinical internships are available to psychology trainees.
