At the École de Psychologues Praticiens, our international dimension goes beyond traditional student mobility. As an active and committed player in the field of psychology, the School has been developing strategic cooperation for many years across diverse cultural contexts.
Whether through academic partnerships, research projects, or educational innovation, our approach is founded on co-creation and collaboration. Our goal is to advance knowledge in psychology while fostering meaningful and lasting connections between cultures.
Erasmus
Erasmus+
The École de Psychologues Praticiens has been a holder of the Erasmus Charter for Higher Education (ECHE) since 2007. Through the Erasmus+ programme, co-funded by the European Union, The School receives funding from the European Commission to support and facilitate its students’ international academic mobility.
This European commitment extends beyond the student experience. Faculty members and administrative staff at the École de Psychologues Praticiens are also encouraged to take part in mobility opportunities with our European partner institutions.
These exchanges enable them to deliver enriching teaching and training activities, as well as to share best practices with colleagues from higher education institutions involved in similar projects.

HEC Montréal
The École de Psychologues Praticiens has established a partnership with HEC Montréal to offer a dual-degree programme. As the leading French-language business school in Canada, HEC Montréal plays a key role in educating responsible leaders.
Through this joint programme, students from The School develop dual expertise in psychology and management. They are thus ideally prepared to support organisations in adopting sustainable, ethical, and people-centred management practices.
Vietnam COIL
The Ho Chi Minh City University of Social Sciences and Humanities and the École de Psychologues Praticiens share a long-standing partnership, reflecting more than 25 years of the School’s presence in Vietnam.
This enduring collaboration has recently led to the development of an innovative Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) project entitled “A Transepistemological Approach to Child Clinical Psychology.” Delivered by a Franco-Vietnamese team of faculty members and researchers, this joint course brings together a cohort of Vietnamese students and fifth-year students from The School.
The programme aims to strengthen students’ intercultural collaboration skills while enhancing their ability to analyse clinical cases through multiple cultural and epistemological perspectives. This innovative educational initiative is expected to expand from the start of the 2026 academic year.
Madagascar
The École de Psychologues Praticiens and the Catholic University of Madagascar (UCM) have enjoyed a long-standing partnership through a bilateral student exchange agreement and are now strengthening their collaboration.
Since 2025, a partnership agreement under the Erasmus+ programme, co-funded by the European Union, has supported the development of a Master’s programme in Child and Adolescent Clinical Psychology at UCM.
This initiative has created a unique collaborative framework: faculty members from The School teach in Antananarivo, Malagasy lecturers are welcomed to France, and each year our Paris and Lyon campuses host six third-year UCM students as part of their academic cohort.
International Days
To foster international engagement beyond study abroad opportunities, the École de Psychologues Praticiens organises International Days each year on both of its campuses.
This flagship event brings together the entire School community—students, faculty members, and professional staff—to exchange ideas, encourage innovation, and reflect collectively on the projects and global challenges shaping the field of psychology.
UNITWIN network
