Call for Public Comment:  Principles for Quality Undergraduate Education in Psychology

 

The APA Board of Educational Affairs (BEA) has posted the Principles for Quality Undergraduate Education in Psychology (Draft, January 2010) for review and comment.  These recommendations were developed following the 2008 APA National Conference on Undergraduate Education in Psychology. 

 

In accordance with Association Rule 30-8, BEA is circulating the Principles for Quality Undergraduate Education in Psychology to APA governance groups, APA Divisions, State Psychological Associations, other organizations in psychology, departments and schools of psychology, and members of the public.

 

Feedback will be gathered through May 31, 2010.  At the conclusion of public comment, the document will be circulated to all APA governance groups with a request that the Council of Representatives approve as Association policy the Principles for Quality Undergraduate Education in Psychology.
