However, if we are to ensure that as many people as possible are able to benefit from such a rewarding educational experience, we need to spend some time considering how this might be best achieved. As a first step, I hope this paper has, at the very least, been an opportunity to open this discussion.
(1.) Although I make no apologies for the Anglocentric nature of this brief overview, I am aware that my perspective is likely to be biased by the fact that I am most familiar with the UK educational system and the opportunities available within it (and, to a lesser extent, opportunities in the USA). I am currently compiling a directory of educational opportunities on behalf of the Parapsychological Association and would welcome being sent details of other educational opportunities. Likewise, if you would like further details of any of the educational opportunities to which I have referred, I would be more than happy to pass on as much as I know.
