| Abstract: | These awards are given by the Board of Educational Affairs in recognition of the efforts of psychologists who have made distinguished contributions to education and training, who have produced imaginative innovations, or who have been involved in the developmental phases of programs in education and training in psychology. Each year one of these two awards is presented. The Distinguished Career Contributions Award recognizes continuous significant contributions made over a lifelong career in psychology; the Distinguished Contributions Award recognizes a more specific contribution to education and training. Award winners from 1987-2005 are listed. This year the Education and Training Awards Committee nominated two psychologists for the Award for Distinguished Contributions to Education and Training. This document includes the citations presented to the award winners of the 2005 APA Award for Distinguished Career Contributions to Education and Training. A brief biography and a selected bibliography of the award winners accompany each citation. If an address was delivered, the award winner's address to the 113th annual APA Convention is also published. The award winners were John C. Norcross and Irma Serrano-García. Norcross delivered an address entitled The Psychotherapist's Own Psychotherapy: Educating and Developing Psychologists (see record 2005-14550-025).
