Section Mission Statement
As the Psychologists in Education section, we are the national forum for the advancement of research and the practice of psychology in educational settings.
Membership includes school psychologists active in the delivery of comprehensive psychological services to children, youth, and their families. Researchers among us advance theory and methodology with applications to teaching, training, assessment, and learning across the lifespan, and within diverse populations. In addition to academics and practitioners, we also welcome and encourage student membership.
The section actively advocates for betterment in the educational and health care domains. As part of CPA, we sponsor a full range of sessions at its Annual Convention. In addition, we maintain a tight-knit relationship with the Canadian Association of School Psychologists and the Canadian Journal of School Psychology.
Members receive the section newsletter and are subscribed to an e-mail discussion list. Annual membership fee is $10.00 ($5.00 for students), which covers the costs of the newsletter and supports the costs of occasional invited speakers/workshops at the CPA Convention. On that note, we must mention our famous luncheon buffet held in conjunction with the annual section business meeting and keynote address.
Our by-laws provide more detailed information about the structure and functioning of the section.
