Navigating Change: Reimagining Psychology Training

The 2026 APPIC Membership Conference will explore the dynamic and evolving landscape of health service psychology in the context of broader societal shifts. Training Directors are managing significant shifts in training programs, including advancements in technology, changes in competency and licensure requirements, uncertainty in the context of organizational change, increasing workplace demands, as well as evolving trainee needs and learning styles. Participants will engage in meaningful dialogue, share evidence-informed practices, and collaborate on practical, forward-thinking approaches to address current and emerging challenges in the provision of health-service psychology.

The APPIC membership conference is for internship and postdoctoral training directors, supervisors, and those psychologists in leadership roles that support training in health service psychology. Programming for the conference is developed with this audience in mind.  It is not open to current trainees, students, or administrative coordinators.


Conference registration will open in January 2026
