Article 27

An applicant whose application for the EuroPsy has been rejected by the National Awarding Committee can lodge an appeal against this decision with the National Psychological Association within the country concerned, providing the grounds for the appeal.

Article 28

This National Psychological Association will establish an independent advisory committee to examine the appeal. This committee will rule on the appeal and provide a written judgement within 60 days. This judgement will be communicated to the applicant and the National Awarding Committee. The independent advisory committee can seek the advice of the European Awarding Committee.

Article 29

Where an applicant’s appeal is rejected, the applicant may appeal to the European Awarding Committee (Article 14e). Such an appeal has to be submitted in the English language and will only be considered when evidence is provided that the National Awarding Committee and the national appeals procedure have failed to apply the regulations governing the award of the EuroPsy in a manner that is consistent with how these regulations are applied in other countries.

Article 30

The national association in a country where delegated powers of the National Awarding Committee have been withdrawn can appeal against this measure to the Executive Council of EFPA. The EFPA Executive Council will seek the advice of a European advisory committee which is established for the occasion and convened by the EFPA President or a deputy.
