Society for the Teaching of Psychology: Division 2 of the American Psychological Association

Webinar Series of the Mid-Career Psychology Committee

The STP Mid-Career Psychology Committee hosts a workshop series aimed at fostering our mid-career community through peer-to-peer support and communication. This initiative is meant to help share information about the cool roles we, as mid-career faculty, have taken on. Speakers will discuss their own experiences with these roles/transitions, covering best practices and tips for those who may be considering such roles in the future. Each webinar is recorded and shared as a digital archive for those who would like to watch it again and/or for those who were not available at the time of the talk.
