Divisions and Special Interest Groups

Membership of the Society's Divisions and Special Interest Groups is available to paid up members of PSI. The work of each Division/Special Interest Group relies on the involvement of its members. The various Divisions and Special Interest Groups promote specialisms within psychology to a high standard and provide professional representation and Continuing Professional Development (CPD) in their relevant specialism. These dyanmic subsections of PSI have also developed links with one another and co-operate in areas of common interest.

Please contact PSI or the Committee of the relevant Division/Special Interest Group if you are interested in getting involved.
