Continuing Professional Development

Ongoing professional development is important for psychologists in all fields of the discipline. For registered psychologists, ongoing professional development on an annual basis, is in fact a requirement of registration with the number of hours required varying by province.

Created in-house, or through partnerships, the CPA’s professional development catalogue contains nearly 200 offerings with new ones being added each month – a breadth and depth that serves psychologists in all areas and career stages.
