Information for Psychologists Teaching Professional Psychology
Welcome
Psychology faculty members advance the field of psychology in a variety of ways and ASPPB wants to offer assistance.
The Psychology Faculty Section of the ASPPB Website provides you with an overview of licensure information that will be useful to you as you help your students as they proceed with their professional career. As you know, psychologists who offers psychological services to the public must be licensed. There are exemptions from licensure requirements that vary across jurisdictions; for example, those who practice psychology in a state or federal institution or agency, in a college or university, or in a research laboratory may be exempt from licensure in some jurisdictions. However, the trend is toward requiring licensure of government agency employees to ensure the same level of protection for consumers of services in both the public and private sectors. As a state or provincial agency, a psychology board seeks to protect the public and by ensuring high standards for those who practice psychology, the board also serves the best interests the profession.
In addition to licensure information, you will find information regarding professional training before and after licensure that may be helpful to you and your students, such as The ASPPB Practicum Guidelines and Continuing Education Guidelines.
If you have any questions, please send ASPPB an email and we will respond within three business days.
