National Psychology Exam: Planning and preparation
Support your journey toward General Registration with our newly released, self-paced eLearning activity designed specifically for provisional psychologists who are preparing to undertake the National Psychology Exam. Across approximately 10 hours of interactive learning, the activity builds both technical skills and critical professional judgment, covering the NPE’s four core domains: Ethics, Assessment, Intervention, and Communication. A timed practice exam is also included to help you gauge readiness under realistic conditions. Supervisors will also benefit from practical tools and strategies to guide supervisees through the exam preparation process with confidence. Start preparing with clarity, structure, and support—access the activity today.
A guide to creating a bespoke professional development pathway
Whether you're an early-career psychologist, an academic or someone looking to upskill in a specific aspect of psychology, APS has a suitable learning pathway to align with your career stage and aspirations. Every psychologist’s path is unique – and your continuing professional development should reflect that. Whether you're a student laying the groundwork, an early-career psychologist navigating ethical and clinical complexities, or a seasoned psychologist looking to expand your therapeutic toolkit, your learning needs evolve with you.
Government-funded training positions
As the peak body for psychology in Australia, The Department of Health and Aged Care has recognised the APS as a primary partner in implementing the National Mental Health Workforce Strategy grant. We have allocated 500 training positions for existing supervisors who need to undertake a refresher masterclass to maintain their current PsyBA-approved registered supervisor status (refresher training is required every five years).
Eligibility & applications
As part of the qualifying criteria of this grant, registered psychologists who work with priority populations, including First Nations, Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD), and/or regional, rural, and remote (located in MMM3-7), will be prioritised to become Board-approved supervisors or to maintain their current PsyBA-approved registered supervisor status. Applications for masterclasses have re-opened with limited placements still available. Previous applicants need not re-apply.
