The strand focusing on the teaching of psychology at the 11th European Congress of Psychology is an acknowledgement of changing educational structures and increasing student diversity within European psychology education.

The program is designed to encourage an evidence-informed approach to changing the way we teach and to provide opportunities for sharing practice on a wide-range issues including teaching methodologies, teaching enhancement mechanisms, student employability, e-learning, student diversity and teacher education.
