Consultation on the National Psychology Examination

The Board is currently seeking stakeholder feedback on the proposed curriculum for the examination and has released an exposure draft for public consultation – see Current Consultations.

The Board previously released a public consultation paper on Guidelines for a National Examination in April 2011. To read the submissions by psychologists and stakeholders, see Past Consultations.

The Board has also released a recommended Reading List for the National Psychology Examination. The reading list will be updated as required and the Board welcomes recommendations for additional readings.

More information on the National Psychology Examination will be published here as this project progresses.
