This programme is designed for people at different stages in their professional careers from a range of backgrounds in education and allied fields such as social work, health and policing. There is a focus on collaborative learning, drawing on your own experiences and those of your academic colleagues. Research-informed courses will help you to think about practice and policy in the light of current educational thinking and enable you to consider how to improve your own practice to become an effective practitioner. Some of these are unique to Scotland. The programme will help you to develop evidence-based, theoretical approaches and practices in critical reflection and judgment that you can apply in relation to your own practice. You will be based at our Dumfries campus, set in the beautiful countryside of the South-West of Scotland.

About the course: I've been really laid back and had sufficient energy to concentrate on the social side. I have met new people, played games, got drunk and did many things. The scholarly side has been a bit difficult sometimes. I would recommend it to everyone
