Pediatric Neuropsychology - Board Certification

Board Certification

There are several boards that examine and certify neuropsychologists engaged in pediatric practice. Consumers seeking services from a board certified pediatric neuropsychologist are encouraged to review qualification and examination procedures to separate those that are legitimate examination-based boards from "vanity" boards, or boards that offer certification without evaluating competency in pediatric neuropsychological skills directly.

  • The American Board of Pediatric Neuropsychology, a subsidiary of the American Academy of Pediatric Neuropsychology, is the only exclusively pediatric board and does not certify the practice of adult or geriatric neuropsychology.
  • The American Board of Clinical Neuropsychology

Famous quotes containing the word board:

    What happens in a strike happens not to one person alone.... It is a crisis with meaning and potency for all and prophetic of a future. The elements in crisis are the same, there is a fermentation that is identical. The elements are these: a body of men, women and children, hungry; an organization of feudal employers out to break the back of unionization; and the government Labor Board sent to “negotiate” between this hunger and this greed.
    Meridel Le Sueur (b. 1900)
