Your Pathway to Ed & Dev Psychology Starts Here. 
Five Universities. One Panel. Your Questions Answered.

Are you passionate about psychology but unsure which pathway to take? Join AEDPA for a webinar event exploring Educational and Developmental Psychology, a field offering diverse career opportunities well beyond traditional clinical roles.

This year, for the first time, we've brought together the Course Directors from every Educational and Developmental Psychology program in Australia for a live panel! Hear directly from the people who run these courses, compare what each program offers, and have your questions answered.

Meet the Panel:

• Dr Zoe Morris (Monash University)
  Educational and Developmental Psychologist and National Treasurer of the APS College of Educational and Developmental Psychologists (CEDP)
• Associate Professor Chelsea Hyde (University of Melbourne)
  Educational and Developmental Psychologist and National Chair of the APS College of Educational and Developmental Psychologists (CEDP)
• Associate Professor Emma Little (Australian Catholic University)
  Educational and Developmental Psychologist and Clinical Psychologist
• Claire Ting (Queensland University of Technology)
  Educational and Developmental Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist, and Director of Advocacy for AEDPA
• Associate Professor Jason Skues (Swinburne University of Technology)
  Psychologist

What to Expect:

• Brief introduction to AEDPA and who we are, followed by a clear walkthrough of the current pathway to becoming a registered psychologist with an Area of Practice Endorsement.
• National Course Director Panel: All five university Course Directors compare their program offerings and answer your questions
• Employability and Career Opportunities: Learn about the breadth of careers Ed & Dev Psychology opens up, featuring "Day in the Life" video clips from practising psychologists and some myth-busting on the common assumptions (including the myth that Ed & Dev psychologists only work with children, or only in schools).

Submit Your Questions:

Ever wished you could put your course questions straight to the people who actually run them? Now you can.

The Panel Q&A is built from questions submitted in advance, so add yours when you register. Don't hold back. The nitty-gritty (entry requirements, program structure, what the course is really like) is exactly what the directors are here for.

Companion Resource for Registrants:

Everyone who registers receives a companion resource covering what it means to be an Ed & Dev psychologist, "Day in the Life" summaries in text, and detailed course information provided by each university and Course Director, including cut-off dates for 2027 enrolments. Worth having if you're weighing up where and when to apply.

Can't Make It Live?

Register anyway to access the recording and share it with future student cohorts.

Who It's For:

This webinar is ideal for Honours and Postgraduate Diploma students, recent graduates, and anyone considering a career in psychology who wants to explore the Educational and Developmental pathway, weigh up which program suits them, and learn about the Area of Practice Endorsement system in Australian psychology from the only Association dedicated to Educational and Developmental Psychologists.
