WPS Frequently Asked Questions

Financial Status

WPS is a very lean organization. No Board Member receives any compensation. We relied on interest free loans from the Board to cover our initial operating expenses, which have now been repaid.

How is wPS accrediting its CEs?

LARA Rules for Certification

Per the LARA rules for continuing Education in Psychology, LARA requires that the program chair be a representative of a nationally or regionally accredited academic institution or a nationally or regionally accredited hospital.

The WPS Program Chair, Dr. Todd K. Favorite, more than satisfies these requirements.

Todd K. Favorite, Ph.D. is an Adjunct Clinical Associate Professor at the University of Michigan Medical School (known as Michigan Medicine). His work is in the Behavioral Sleep Medicine Clinic in the Department of Psychiatry at Michigan Medicine. He is also Co-Principal Investigator for the Back Pain Study at Michigan Medicine. 

In addition, WPS recently arranged sponsorship by the University of Detroit Mercy. This adds another layer of scrutiny, since each webinar is subject to overview by their representatives. Steven Huprich, Ph.D. is currently the designated representative from UD Mercy.
