      Information Purpose Short description of the Association and Work and Organizational Psychology Division
      Since the foundation of the Psychological Society of Ireland (PSI) in the early 1970’s, individual psychologists carved out a special role for Work and Organisational Psychology (also known as Industrial/Organisational psychology) in Ireland. By the mid 1980’s, responding to demands from members of the PSI, a Masters course in Social and Organisational Psychology was first initiated in University College Dublin (UCD) in 1986.
      Thereafter a Masters in Organisational Psychology was inaugurated in Dublin City University (DCU), and a Masters course in Human Resources was established in University College Cork (UCC). Currently, there are three Universities offering postgraduate courses in work and organisational psychology.
      By the late 1990’s, a PSI Special Interest Group in Work and Organisational Psychology was founded, leading to a new impetus for academics and practitioners to develop and consolidate this discipline. Significant growth of interest led to the establishment of the Division of Work and Organisation Psychology (DWOP) by the Council of PSI in 2001.
      The Division of Work and Organisational Psychology (DWOP) is one of eight divisions of professional psychologists in the Psychological Society of Ireland (PSI). Currently, the Division represents some 75 members including psychologists who are HR specialists, change agents, practitioners in private practice, consultants, and teacher-practitioners of work and organisational psychology amongst others. The Division has recently revised its accreditation criteria for postgraduate training in W&OP and has set up a committee to roll out Stage 2 supervised practice to graduates of postgraduate courses in W&OP commencing in 2010.
      The Division provides an extensive programme of seminars and master classes to its members and runs a biennial conference in work and organisational psychology - the first in 2007 entitled “Challenges Facing Irish Leaders in the 21st Century”, and most recently, its second conference in March 2009 entitled “Workplace Coaching: Empowering and Engaging Employees Through a Difficult Climate”. The Division also sponsors symposia and workshops and at the annual conference of the PSI. In 2008 the Division rolled out its strategic development plan and was also instrumental in facilitating a similar development within PSI itself. The Division founded a Coaching Psychology Group in 2008 (with a current membership of 54 W&OPs) in response to growing demand amongst its members. The Division also provides a quarterly newsletter to members. Division members make regular contributions to national and international conferences, and journals, and actively seek ways to promote the knowledge, skills and abilities of W&OPs to the general public.

      Information Purpose The Slovenian Psychological Association (SPA) is a voluntary professional organization of psychologists in Slovenia and is a non-governmental, not-for-profit, and non-politically affiliated association bringing together members from the fields of science, education, sport, healthcare, social care, work, marketing, defence, and environmental protection. It has approx. 200 regular members.
      According to the SPA Statute, the Association’s work entails:

      representing the profession of psychologists and the professional interests of its members;
      co-operating and assisting in the advance and development of psychological theory and practice;
      informing and connecting its members;
      ensuring the academic and professional development of its members, their further professional education and training through the organization and provision of lectures, workshops, courses, seminars, study days, consultations and congresses;
      publishing or ensuring the publication of academic literature, particularly its own academic journal in line with relevant regulations;
      coordinating and supervising the publication, maintenance, and academic application of psycho-diagnostic tools and psychological documentation in accordance with regulations;
      regulating the professional status of psychologists and promoting the legal aspects of psychologists’ work;
      joining professional associations from other countries and ensuring compliance with European or international criteria and standards;
      ensuring the public is correctly informed about the work, achievements and potential of psychology;
      ensuring respect for the principle of professional ethics among psychologists.

      The work of the SPA is carried out via a number of sections: School Psychology Section, Psychology Teaching Section, Social Care Psychology Section, Legal and Family Therapy Section, Section of work and organizational psychology, Transport and Sport Medicine, and Sports Psychology Section. The SPA collaborates also with the Slovenian Psychology Students' Association. The SPA is presented online: http://www.dps.si.
      The SPA is a member of and actively participates in the EFPA (European Federation of Psychologists’ Associations) and the ITC (International Test Committee).

      The SPA publishes the journal Psihološka obzorja / Horizons of Psychology (http://psy.ff.uni-lj.si/iGuests/Obzorja/) and is co-publisher of the journal Anthropos.
      In addition to organising and holding occasional lectures, workshops, courses, seminars and study days, the SPA also organises an annual conference, the Slovenian Psychologists’ Conference and every four years the Psychologists’ Congress of Slovenia with international participation.

      The SPA is also engaged in important work relating to redesigning the university study of psychology in Slovenia in accordance with the principles of the Bologna Declaration and the European Certificate in Psychology - EuroPsy. The SPA took the initiative on this and for some years has actively worked on this issue with numerous state institutions, the business and professional sector and public bodies, and particularly closely with the psychology departments at the University of Ljubljana and the University of Maribor.

      For some years, intense work has also been underway at the SPA towards the legal regulation of the practice of psychology in Slovenia, which has been closely related to various content-based and organisational aspects of the study of psychology at the universities of Ljubljana and Maribor and the introduction of the EuroPsy certificate. While in most European countries the practice of psychology has already been legally organised and prevents providers offering psychology services that do not meet professional standards, as set out, for example, in the EuroPsy certificate, Slovenia is sadly lagging well behind in this process. The SPA has already brought this to the attention of Slovenia’s Ministry of Health on numerous occasions, and has notified the general public through the media.

      Work and Organisational Psychology section acts within SPA and incorporates psychologists who work as HR managers, consultants, academics, trainers and coaches in the field of work and organisational psychology. The section organises regular professional meetings two times a year, where members have the opportunity for knowledge and experience exchange, to study practices in Slovenian companies and to connect with academics. In year 2010 the section received Leonardo da Vinci grant for professional education of their members. Within this project the section sent six members to creativity training in Malta.

      Information Purpose The BPS Division of Occupational Psychology (DOP) exists to promote the professional interests of occupational psychologists and those in training in the UK, and to support the development of psychology both as a profession and as a body of knowledge and skills. It provides a home, a champion, a source of support and development for occupational psychologists and trainee occupational psychologists (TOPs).
      Established more than a century ago as one of the earliest Divisions of the British Psychological Society, the DOP was reconstituted in 2001 to bring practitioners and academics in occupational psychology together in a single division. It is one of the larger divisions in the BPS.

      The DOP is led by an elected committee and in recent years there has been a restructure of its groups and subcommittees.

      The division publishes a peer-reviewed publication, Occupational Psychology Outlook (OPO), launched in 2022; runs a major conference which will be held again in 2024; operates an Awards Scheme and delivers CPD and networking events.

      An important ongoing priority for the DOP is providing support to trainees and early career psychologists working in the field of occupational psychology, encouraging them to become members of our professional community.
