The Departmental Consulting Service (DCS) is a service offered to psychology departments through the joint efforts of the APA Education Directorate and the Society for the Teaching of Psychology (STP). Developed in response to an increasing need for evaluations, the service provides departments of psychology with a list of qualified consultants who will provide feedback that will enable them to improve their programs. We have consultants who can help you with any number of consulting requests, including community college reviews and consulting services that deal with diversity issues. The Departmental Consulting Service maintains a database of faculty consultants with expertise in a broad range of areas. Specific areas include (but are not limited to): curriculum (evaluation, development, designing/improving special programs or courses, fieldwork or honors); faculty (writing grant proposals, developing funding sources, writing for publication, promoting professional development, enhancing/evaluating teacher effectiveness); advising (student advising for career planning, graduate school preparation, changing enrollments, minority recruitment and retention); research facilities (designing psychology labs, designing teaching facilities, computer applications for courses, labs, or administration); departmental program evaluation (self-assessments, program evaluation, department evaluation). Departments interested in requesting a consultant can contact David Kreiner at the address below or [EMAIL PROTECTED] A minimum of three consultants will be recommended whenever possible. Departments are asked to pay for all travel expenses that may be incurred during a site visit. Additionally, departments will be encouraged to pay an honorarium (jointly determined by the department and the invited consultant). Departments with limited finances may request a reduced or waived honorarium which consultants are free to agree to, but are under no obligation to accept.
