Welcome

What is EFPTA?

EFPTA is a federation of national and regional associations of psychology teachers in schools and colleges in European countries. Members are mainly involved in teaching psychology at lower and upper secondary levels, to school students aged c.13-19 years.

 Aim

Our aim is to promote and support pre-university psychology education in Europe. To this end we facilitate co-operation and networking amongst psychology teachers, mostly via their associations where these exist. We organise conferences and webinars, encourage student and teacher collaborative projects, conduct research, and engage with other psychologists' associations and educational organisations in Europe. EFPTA is an Affiliate Member of the European Federation of Psychologists' Associations (EFPA) and we are represented on its Board of Educational Affairs.
