2009 NCSPP Awards
Distinguished
Professional Psychologist Award:
The
Distinguished Professional Psychologist Award was presented to Dr.
Roger Peterson, Antioch University. The
Distinguished Professional Psychologist Award is given each year to an
individual who
has made exemplary
professional
contributions to professional
psychology education. The purposes of this award are to recognize an
outstanding psychologist for his/her work
in professional education; make a visible, public commitment to NCSPP
to foster quality professional education; and
encourage more psychologists to work toward the enhancement
of professional psychology education. This award is consistent with the
philosophy and goals of the National Council of Schools and Programs
in Professional
Psychology.
Dr. Peterson received his Bachelor's degree from Harvard University
and was trained in clinical psychology at the Purdue University and completed
his internship as Duke University. He is the Dean of the Antioch New England
School of Professional Psychology and a past president of the National
Council of Schools of Professional Psychology. His service to the profession
includes
a long list of accomplishments which also mirrors his long list of publications.
Among those that I think are most notable for the NCSPP are his many years
of sustained high quality service to the Committee on Accreditation, with
his most recent appointment being that of Member-at-Large. I also draw
attention to two of his publications that are a must read for anyone who
is
involved
with education and training in professional psychology. The first is
the Chapter in the NCSPP publication The Core Curriculum in Professional
Psychology.
It was in this publication that I first understood why social responsibility
is and must be a foundational principle for professional psychology.
The second "must read" is the article that he wrote with his mentor
Don Peterson and Jules Abrams on the "Professional Psychology Training
Model". This paper has also become the foundation for the formation
of new programs since its publication almost fifteen years ago. His work
on standards in professional psychology are also foundational and a testimony
to the vision that he has as a leader and pioneer in the professional
psychology movement.
