Course programme

You will study appropriate research and practice from multiple contexts.

The programme will consider ethical and moral issues within practice as well as data collection, analysis, design and implementation of support programmes.

Modules consider how complex behavioural needs can affect an individual’s access to choice and empowerment. You will be introduced to applied behaviour analysis and consider techniques for behaviour management. Practical and ethical application of techniques will also be critiqued.

Action learning sets at the end of the first year will support you in facilitating ideas, a guided process preparing you for the second year of independent study within your area of work or practice.

How will I study?

The course is delivered part-time and has been designed to support those who may have employment / carer commitments. In year 1, two modules run in the first semester and one in the second semester.

The final year of each course is designed to be completed within the work place with negotiated study periods. You will be involved in and encouraged to access classroom discussion, reflection, lectures and work based study.
