2027 Call for ProposalS

---

We cordially invite you to submit a proposal for the fourth annual Northeast Regional Psychology (NERP) Conference: Trends in the Training Field which will be held on Friday, April 9th at the University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School in Worcester, MA. Proposals for the conference should be aligned with trends in the field and the future of training in psychology. We are seeking a well-rounded series of topics with professionals across all stages of career development, including those currently in training, represented. 

The theme for the 2027 NERP Conference is focused on "Looking Ahead to the Next Generation of Psychology". Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Integrating social justice into training
• Navigating ethical issues related to AI and technology
• Engaging in ethical practice in a changing professional landscape
• Advancements in supervision, training, and/or clinical intervention across early, mid, and late career psychologists
• Navigating changes to master's level licensing and accreditation
• Fostering leadership across students and early, mid, and late career psychologists
• Navigating divisiveness in clinical practice, training, and/or supervision
• Pearls of wisdom, lessons learned, and looking ahead to the future of psychology

As we continually prepare to train future psychologists, the NERP Conference remains dedicated to facilitating access, fostering development, and supporting the implementation of high-quality education and training. Toward this end, we will continue to prioritize trends in the training field which are based on the principles of established science, social justice, a culture of inclusivity, fairness, and respect for all individuals.

Please contact ADMIN@ttfconference.com regarding questions about how to submit your proposals and what to include! Additional information about the conference and proposal submissions can be found at ttfconference.com.

Proposals will be accepted until Tuesday, 12/15/2026, with notifications about proposal statuses being provided by Friday, 01/15/2027. To provide opportunities to as many presenters as possible, presenters that are listed on multiple proposals will have at most one proposal accepted.
