description Over the past 10 years a European standard for psychology education and training (EuroPsy) in Europe has been developed through two European Union (EU)-funded projects. This development has been supported by political initiatives within Europe, in particular the so-called Bologna process and the new EU Directive on qualifications, which is intended to facilitate professional mobility. The EuroPsy standard applies to professional psychologists at the initial qualification level, namely, independent practice. It requires 6 years of education and training, which include 1 year of supervised practice. The article describes these developments and some critical issues. © The Australian Psychological Society Ltd Published by Taylor and Francis.
