EPPP Information

The Examination for Professional Practice in Psychology, EPPP, is the National and Provincial Examination used for licensure purposes in the United States and Canada.  The tests are developed by the Association of State and Provincial Psychology Boards.  Please see their web site for additional information, www.asppb.org.

The WV Board of Examiners of Psychologists will provide a packet of information that will allow active Supervised Psychologists to take the examination.  Directions are enclosed in the packet for applying and taking the exam.  EPPP Packets are mailed to each newly approved Supervised Psychologist after Board approval of their application.  If you have not received this packet please contact the Board office.

Scores are provided to the Board office 2 times per month.  These scores are available a few working days after both the middle and the end of the month. 

All WV Supervised Psychologists have a time limit in which to take and pass the test.  This time limit is listed on all application approval letters and on each Gold Card Renewal Form.  Those who do not pass the test by their appointed dates will be have their Supervised Psychologist status terminated and will no longer be eligible for licensure in WV.  The Board will grant Supervisees an extension for medical reasons.  A letter requesting an extension from the Supervisee and a letter from a Medical Doctor are required for an extension.
