NMPA Early Career Psychologists Division

Welcome to NMPA's Early Career Psychologists Division webpage!

Mission Statement   The NMPA Early Career Psychologists (ECP) Division will provide a professional community to advance the development of psychologists entering the profession, empowering its members through advocacy, mentoring and education.

Who We Are   In 2009, the NMPA Board of Directors appointed its first Early Career Psychologist Representative, Janice Griffin, PhD,  and is currently developing a committee to demonstrate our commitment to supporting the needs and interests of ECPs.

Who Can Join?  Doctoral students can join the ECP Division if they are a student member of NMPA. There is no upper limit for membership since NMPA members may benefit from aspects of the ECP Division at any point in their career.
