The Deadline to Apply for National Register Early Career Psychologist Credentialing Scholarships is 4/1/2008! Are you or any of your colleagues interested in becoming credentialed by the National Register of Health Service Providers in Psychology? If yes, but the initial cost is a barrier, apply for a National Register Early Career Psychologist (ECP) Credentialing Scholarship!

National Register Early Career Psychologist Credentialing Scholarships: This award will defray the $365 credential review and application fee to become a Registrant. These scholarships are provided to early career psychologists (within seven years of award of doctoral degree) who are both eligible for and interested in becoming credentialed, but for whom the initial cost is a financial hurdle. Award receipts are selected in collaboration with the APA Committee on Early Career Psychologists. To apply for this award, please email us the following materials:

• a current CV
• an application letter describing your achievements and goals as an early career psychologist, as well as an explanation of how the National Register Health Service Provider in Psychology credential will directly and positively impact your career.

To qualify for a credentialing scholarship, you must also complete the National Register Application Request Form.

The deadline to apply for the ECP Credentialing Scholarships is April 1, 2008!
