Reference Guide

Wellpark College requires students utilise the American Psychological Association (APA) style of formatting when creating in-text references and references lists for your academic courses.

Based on the current sixth edition of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (APA referencing guide), students are required to purchase The Pocket Guide to APA style - Robert Perrin available from the Wellpark College Bookshop, at reception of our Grey Lynn campus. There are also multiple online aids to the sixth edition of the Publication Manual.
