What It Is

AQNP (Association québécoise des neuropsychologues) is the Quebec Association of Neuropsychologists. The site is not a typical MOOC platform, but rather a vertical platform that combines a professional association, member resources, public education, and referrals to neuropsychologists. Its educational value mainly lies in its annual Clinical Neuropsychology Conference, the online “Rendez-vous de l’AQNP,” the Neuropsychology Tools Fair, Seniors’ Cognitive Health Day, and member-accessible purchased training and professional resources.

Core Content and Format

In terms of subject matter, AQNP focuses on neuropsychology, clinical assessment, intervention, cognitive health, and neuropsychological disorders. Teaching and exchange formats include in-person or annual conferences, monthly lunchtime Zoom meetings, a fully virtual tools fair, and public-facing cognitive health activities. The site also offers an “Info-troubles” section, with accessible disorder-related information written by experts, along with recommended books and links. The members’ area includes tools, resources, job postings, forums, purchased training, receipts, and more.

Pricing and Access

Membership is based on an annual subscription: CAD 90 per year for professional members and CAD 40 per year for student members, with automatic renewal every 12 months. Students must provide proof of enrollment in a doctoral program in neuropsychology. The tools fair is free for AQNP members, and job postings are free. The main site does not disclose specific training course prices, duration, certificates, or continuing education credits, so if your goal is to purchase courses, you will need to check the store or members’ area for further confirmation.

Pros and Cons

Its strengths are its high degree of professional specialization and the way it builds a closed loop around neuropsychology practice in Quebec, covering referrals, learning, networking, and career information. Online Zoom sessions and virtual events lower the barrier to participation, while the general public can also access basic educational content and a directory for finding neuropsychologists. Its limitations are that many activities are marked as members-only, the association explicitly does not provide personalized consultations, and key educational-platform elements such as course structure, instructor lists, and certification outcomes are not sufficiently disclosed. The content is in French, and the use case is clearly oriented toward the local Quebec context.

Who It’s For and Access from China

It is best suited to neuropsychologists in Quebec, relevant doctoral students, people who need ongoing professional exchange, and local members of the public looking for information about neuropsychological assessment. For users in China, it may serve as a reference for basic neuropsychology education; however, if you are looking for systematic courses or certificates, the available information is insufficient. The review does not provide information on access from mainland China, so its accessibility is unknown.
