Got to present on a constructive shift in psychology undergrad education, including @icupo.bsky.social, at the Next Big Ideas conference! apadiv1.org/news-events/...
We're super excited - we have not one, not two, but THREE (3) forthcoming papers working their way through editorial systems right now. Watch this space - we'll tell you here (with links) when they're available! #ICUP #UndergraduatePsychology #Competences
We've updated our open-access educational resources! If you're looking for inspiration about how to teach using the #ICUP #UndergraduatePsychology #Competences framework, check out our #OSF site, and subfolders: osf.io/6y38x/overview
Exciting looking cfp for #qualitative researchers
New from Valentina Sorrentino and @susan-nolan.bsky.social a fab article for #psychology #undergraduate students about how the #InternationalCompetencesForUndergraduatePsychology #ICUP can help students to make the most of their degree: www.psichi.org/page/302Eye_... #PsychSky #PsySky #AcademicSky
We've probably all heard about the #WEIRD (Western, educated, industrialised, rich, democratic) problem in #psychology? We need to build a more inclusive, representative #psychology for humanity! Do we need to think our language? This article says yes, we do: www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/one-...
Do you teach undergraduate psychology programs? Would you be interested in helping us to better understand the competences that undergrad psychology students gain through their studies? If so, please consider completing our survey - full information is available here: https//shu.co1.qua...
When we can, the ICUPO team enjoys working with student interns - always good to hear their thoughts.
Leah Westerman from @ntupsychology.bsky.social has blogged about her development of competences from the #ICUP model: ntupsychology.blog/2025/07/28/p...
Poster includes the following text: What should we really be teaching in undergraduate psychology? The International Competences for Undergraduate Psychology (#ICUP) model defines what foundational competences psychology students should graduate with. The ICUP model helps us, as teachers, ensure that students leave our programes ready to make personal, professional, and societal impact - locally and globally. More info: teaching.sig@pap.ph; @TeachPsychPAP; Teaching Psychology SIG TV; The Teaching Psychology SIG Podcast.
The #ICUP model is recommended by the Psychological Association of the Phillippines (PAP)! Find out more about how the #ICUP can be used alongside your national, regional, or local frameworks for #Psychology #PsychologyEducation, see icupo.org #InternationalCompetencesForUndergraduatePsychology
We're delighted to see this paper out in the wild! The ICUPO ethos has always been and will continue to be very much built upon collaboration, collegiality, and cultural responsiveness. Find out more here! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
Quote: “The concept of psychological literacy has shaped everything I do. Women like Jacky Cranney in Australia, Susan Nolan in the US, and Julie Hulme in the UK have really pioneered this language to articulate the function of a psychology degree. I feel really strongly that undergraduate psychology education can do amazing things…

#Ubuntu is an African value system that upholds #humanity, interconnectedness and collective #wellbeing. Its philosophy can help lecturers to humanise the classroom, particularly when tech risks depersonalising #learning, explains Chipo Simbi of the University of Southampton: ow.ly/kw7950VGVA6

Interesting news at our ICUPO meeting now! Psychology Board of Australia announces a requirement for courses that allow psychologists to register as practitioners after just one degree. Looking forward to seeing how ICUP competences can inform the work ☺️ www.psychologyboard.gov.au/News/2025-03...

One of the questions we hear frequently, when we talk about our international competences in undergraduate #psychology (ICUP) model is: "How can I teach the competences?"
We thought you might like to explore some case studies! Collated here: doi.org/10.17605/OSF...
Do you have ideas to share?
