President’s Corner…
Dear PsySSA Members
Spring is virtually upon us and for PsySSA members this heralds the coming of our much-awaited annual Congress. As indicated in previous communication, PsySSA is hosting the inaugural Pan African Psychology Union Congress (PAPU2017). Hence the annual PsySSA Congress has been incorporated into PAPU2017. With over 600 presentations spanning all areas of Psychology, it’s no wonder registration for PAPU is moving at a brisk space. Members can access the programme at http://papu2017.com/programme/ . PAPU promises to deliver much and Psychology professionals who miss this event will be missing out in a big way! PAPU offers the opportunity to earn the entire years CPD points, network with a variety of scholars and practitioners in your field and, of course, meet old friends. Remember there is an extra discount on PAPU registration fees for PsySSA members. The PsySSA AGM is scheduled for Monday the 18th of September (16h00- 17h30). The Opening Ceremony will be at 17h45 and a fun-filled Welcome reception at 19h30. We hope to see you there.
More good news is on the cards for PsySSA. The Professional Board for Psychology (PBP) has responded positively to PsySSA’s request to intervene with the medical aids. Read more online…
