The American Psychological Association’s (APA’s) annual convention provides an opportunity for SIOP members to convene with each other and colleagues from other areas of psychology to network, share ideas, and present research. As has become SIOP tradition, Division 14 was well represented this year at the annual APA convention in Denver, with a strong program of invited and peer-reviewed sessions devoted to a wide range of topics within and outside of I-O psychology.

Save the date!  Wednesday, April 26, 2017, is the date for the SIOP preconference workshops at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin in Orlando.  Join us for a chance to gain hands on experience with cutting edge I-O topics from the field's leading experts, network with your colleagues, and socialize at our premier evening reception!

On April 27, 2017, the SIOP Consortia Committee will introduce the newly developed Early Career Practitioner Consortium, expanding our pre-conference program offerings to four partially integrated consortia. An overarching goal of the consortia is to provide a socialization experience and networking opportunity to graduate students and early career professionals embarking on their career pathways. For 3 decades, consortia have offered such programming to graduate students (Master’s Consortium and Doctoral Consortium) and more recently extended the development pipeline to early career professionals pursuing academic careers (Junior Faculty Consortium). We are thrilled to further extend our programming to consultants and practitioners in the first 5 to 6 years of their career tracks.

SIOP is looking to the Future of I-O in 2017, with several all-new initiatives and an outstanding lineup of forward-focused sessions! Planning for this 32^nd Annual Conference in Orlando is well underway, so consider this your official notice to mark your calendars. Don’t miss this chance to be a part of shaping the next generation of I-O Psychology.

Don’t forget: We are seeking proposals for rankings of graduate programs.  Please refer to the original Call for Proposals (TIP; July 2016) for more details and see below for answers to some questions we have received.  As a brief reminder, we are seeking proposals for new and unique methodologies for ranking I-O PhD and MA/MS programs that reflect the diversity of values and strengths across the field of I-O. Multiple ranking methodology submissions will be accepted for publication, resulting in multiple rankings featured in an upcoming issue of TIP.  We have developed this call in consultation with the TIP editor, in response to a need for more comprehensive and updated information about graduate programs.
