FIRST OF ITS KIND! Designed to celebrate business psychology, this event is the first of its kind and will run as a collaboration between the Association for Business Psychology and the University of Westminster. The University of Westminster is home to the Business Psychology Centre (BPC), which was preceded by Europe’s first MSc Business Psychology course, originated in 1998 at the university by Dr Stephen Benton. The university will therefore be honouring 20 years of success in developing world-class knowledge transfer activities relevant to both society and organisations. The ABP aims to celebrate and inspire the next generation of business psychologists, with a tribute to students achieving academic excellence and recognising their research contributions to our profession. The ABP further aims to offer Business Psychology students a home for professional networking & continuous professional development, and is delighted to be joining hands with the University of Westminster to make our shared vision a reality.
