National Psychology Exam
Complete preparation, mapped to the four official domains
Structured NPE preparation for provisional psychologists in the 5+1 pathway. Domain modules, applied vignettes, a practice quiz bank, and paced study plans (4-week calendar and 1-week intensive) — authored by a registered Australian psychologist who has been on both sides of the exam process.
New: full-length timed mock exams, the named NPE Reasoning Engine, a multi-modal media library, and a learner dashboard.
A 300-question Practice Bank now ships inside the course — structured practice questions across all four exam domains, with a worked explanation for every option. Structured practice questions, not assessment replicas. After purchase you'll find it in the course dashboard under Practice Bank.
The four official NPE domains
The Psychology Board of Australia's National Psychology Examination is organised around four examination domains. Every domain has dedicated, interactive content in this program.
What's in the program
Six components targeting the knowledge and reasoning the NPE actually tests — each with a live preview from inside the program.
Structured content for all NPE domains. Each module covers the high-yield knowledge, core theoretical frameworks, and application principles tested in the written exam — not just a reading list.
Multiple-choice and short-answer questions framed around clinical vignettes and scenario-based reasoning. Immediate feedback with explanation of both correct and distractor answers.
The APS Code of Ethics and AHPRA professional standards — distilled into testable principles with worked application examples. Ethics questions are reliably present in every NPE sitting.
Vignettes that cut across domains — assessing whether you can integrate knowledge from assessment, intervention, ethics, and developmental psychology in a single case scenario.
Two paced, domain-sequenced revision schedules with spaced repetition built in — a four-week calendar, or a condensed one-week run-up if time is short. Built for study around internship.
One-page domain summaries for final revision. Designed to be printed and reviewed in the days before the exam.

Common questions
What is the NPE?
The National Psychology Exam is a written examination required for general registration as a psychologist in Australia under the 5+1 internship pathway. Provisional psychologists must pass the NPE to progress from provisional to general registration.
Who is this program for?
Provisional psychologists in the 5+1 pathway preparing for the NPE. The program is not designed for the 4+2 pathway, though clinicians seeking a structured review of NPE domains have found it useful.
How is this different from PPRC or other prep resources?
PPRC offers domain bundles at similar price points (~$499 AUD). This program is authored from a clinician perspective — the emphasis is not on passing a test but on building the integrated reasoning the exam is testing. Case vignettes cut across domains, and explanations address why wrong answers are wrong, not just what the right answer is. The OSCE-NPE-DSM suite also supports candidates sitting multiple exams in the same registration cycle.
How much does it cost?
AUD $499 including GST. 12 months access. One-time payment — not a subscription.
Is this affiliated with AHPRA or the Psychology Board of Australia?
No. This is an independent educational resource. The Psychology Board of Australia's official exam specifications and preparation advice remain the authoritative source for NPE requirements.
Can I use this alongside the OSCE program?
Yes — and that is the intended use for many candidates. The OSCE and NPE overlap in several domains (assessment, ethics, intervention). Purchasing both gives you integrated coverage across both exam formats. A bundle discount is planned for launch.
