National Psychology Training Consortium

National Psychology Training Consortium NPTC is a doctoral internship consortium with three APA accredited regions. Our next site visit will be in 2020.

The National Psychology Training Consortium (NPTC, previously Heart of America Psychology Training Consortium), a pre-doctoral psychology internship, is a collaborative consortium consisting of psychological and primary care service centers throughout the United States focused on provision of services with rural and underserved patients. The Central region of NPTC was founded in 2003 through a col

laboration of The School of Professional Psychology at Forest Institute and Royal Oaks Hospital to create new internship positions in underserved areas (under the name Heart of America Psychology Training Consortium). As of October 2013, NPTC-Central received seven years accreditation by the Commission on Accreditation of the American Psychological Association. NPTC-Central has also been an APPIC member since fall of 2004.

NPTC is delighted to announce not just one, but two significant updates regarding the accreditation status of our programs.

Our Cy-Hawk Region has received APA accreditation on contingency! Accreditation on contingency is the anticipated status at this stage of the process. This accreditation is in effect as of May 9, 2025, meaning the two interns who just graduated from the Cy-Hawk Region in July will be recognized as graduates from an APA-accredited internship!

Following this announcement, we also learned that our Pacific Region has been approved for a site visit by APA! The first cohort of interns in this region began in June, and the training year is off to a promising start.

NPTC extends its gratitude to our member sites, training directors, supervisors, interns, alumni, and leadership for their dedication and hard work in maintaining a successful program. We eagerly anticipate many more years of training tomorrow’s psychologists!
