Brazilian higher education has expanded in the past 30 years, and Psychology courses have presented a higher growth in enrollment compared to other areas. This article aimed to analyze the online availability of pedagogical information on Psychology courses, such as course description and syllabus. We performed an exploratory, documental research, which computed statistics on the availability of the information searched in the websites of the Higher Education Institutions. Results indicate that public and private institutions have failed to publish relevant information, in disagreement with the notions of transparency and accountability, and contrary to Brazilian laws.
