The Minnesota Conference proposed guidelines for education and training in clinical neuropsychology

The resulting "Minnesota Guidelines" include five foundational (Neuroscience and Brain Behavior Relationships; Integration of Science and Practice; Ethics, Standards, Laws, and Policies; Diversity; and Professional Relationships) and eight functional (Assessment; Intervention; Interdisciplinary Systems and Consultation; Research and Scholarship; Technology and Innovation; Teaching, Supervision, and Mentoring; Health and Professional Advocacy; and Administration, Management, and Business) areas of competency required for entry level specialty practice. While consensus was not achieved, a majority of voting delegates recommended the Guidelines for adoption and the Guidelines have been endorsed by six neuropsychology education and board certification organizations. The American Academy of Clinical Neuropsychology has not endorsed the Minnesota Guidelines and will not make an endorsement decision until three months after online publication.
