Welcome to Division 15
Welcome to Division 15, the American Psychological Association’s flagship organization for Educational Psychology.
Together, our global network of educational psychologists has united around a common goal: understanding—and refining—the processes inherent in learning. And, while other professionals in psychology touch upon issues of great importance, we take pride in the knowledge that our work potentially extends to every individual on the planet.
As we move into 2012, the division has begun a number of exciting new initiatives, each designed to promote collaboration and further the careers of our membership. These campaigns include (but are not limited to):
- Additional funding for early career psychologists
- Digital recording of conference speeches for online release
- Distribution of information about relevant open positions throughout the country
- Heightened media awareness for the division
- New internal publications
- Integration of social media for peer-to-peer sharing opportunities
We also encourage members (and non-members*) to express their unique goals for Division 15 membership. This feedback is instrumental in delivering support and initiatives best-suited for our membership’s unique needs. If you have any ideas you’d like to see enacted, please contact Wade George ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. ).
