Situación Actual de la Psicología Educativa en Europa

Abstract

This article aims to set out the main problems and objectives achieved in recent years with regard to regulation in the various European countries of the role and profile of the educational psychologist. It also sets out the findings of the ESPIL Project (European School Psychologists Improve Lifelong Learning) submitted to the European Union (EU) last October 2010. This project has attempted to raise awareness of the impact of policy developments in European countries in the education and training of educational psychology professionals in the last decade, and encourage EU member associations to consider the consequences of these policies on education, training and provision of educational psychologists, including job profiles, competencies and qualifications within the new paradigms of lifelong learning. Keywords: lifelong learning, educational psychologist, counselor, profile. (English) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
