Lunchbox Lectures

Lunchbox Lectures series

The CPA’s Lunchbox Lectures is an opportunity to hear from leading researchers and practitioners across the full spectrum of psychological science. Each monthly session highlights current issues, emerging research, and innovative approaches shaping the discipline today.

We designed this series to help inform, broaden perspectives, and spark new ideas, giving you a forum for learning and professional growth throughout the year. All lectures are free for members and just $15 for non-members.

All Lunchbox Lectures are eligible for 1.5 CE credits*.
