Task Force on Guidelines for Master’s Programs in Psychology
American Psychological Association

Abstract
The Board of Educational Affairs (BEA) of the American Psychological Association (APA) appointed a task force to articulate what students should know and be able to do at the conclusion of a master’s program. Professional organizations such as APA have an obligation to lead the discipline in offering guidance about appropriate learning goals and outcomes at all levels of education. APA guidelines outline goals and outcomes at the high school and undergraduate level as well as competencies at the clinical, counseling, and school doctoral level. This document is intended to help bridge the sequence of education and training with core goals and outcomes for psychology master’s programs.
