The Annual Trainers of School Psychologists Awards
Trainers of School Psychologists (TSP) is committed to innovation and excellence in graduate training programs for specialist and doctoral school psychologists. Our purpose is to foster high-quality training in school psychology programs. We work toward this goal by examining current trends in graduate education programs, providing professional growth opportunities to school psychology faculty, facilitating communication with field-based supervisors, and supporting legislative efforts that promote diversity and excellence in training.
Each year TSP is pleased to recognize the contributions of our school psychology faculty and students to our mission. Awards are presented at the TSP annual conference.
