"The APA Board of Educational Affairs (BEA) Steering Committee for the 2008 National Conference on Undergraduate Education in Psychology designed these principles for quality teaching and learning for all stakeholders in higher education—students, faculty, departments, academic administrators, public policymakers, and the general public—to ensure that students are prepared for the challenges they will encounter as workers, family members, and concerned citizens in the new global century. These principles describe a set of recommendations for creating a world-class educational system that provides students with the workplace skills needed in this information age; a solid academic background that prepares them for advanced study in a wide range of fields; and the knowledge, skills, and values they will need to enter and succeed in the workforce and thrive in their daily lives."
