AHPRA – National Psychology Exam

Practice Questions

Preparing for the AHPRA National Psychology Exam?

Our practice questions for the National Psychology Exam (NPE) are designed to help you meet the final regulatory requirement before seeking registration as a General Registered Psychologist in Australia.

 

Implemented since 1 July 2013, the NPE serves as a regulatory measure by the Psychology Board of Australia, to ensure that applicants registering for General Registration have obtained a minimum level of applied professional knowledge. This NPE aims to protect the public by ensuring only adequately trained and qualified psychologists, capable of practicing ethically and competently, are granted registration. Additionally, the NPE also helps to ensure a consistent professional standard for psychologists across the nation.
