Flexible Professional Development Modules
The key aspect of this programme is flexibility. Students can attend specific modules according to their individual professional needs and working environment. Some modules hone skills and knowledge in a specific area (e.g. older people, trauma etc) and others cover a diverse range of disorders in less detail. Each module holds a University credit evaluation, and on successful completion, these credits can be accumulated towards a University of Reading qualification in Professional Development in Evidence-Based Psychological Treatment.
Accumulated credits award:
- Certificate (60 credits)
- Diploma (120 credits)
- Masters (120 credits together with a research dissertation).
Course benefits
- Broaden, update, strengthen and deepen professional skills and competencies
- Study for a single module or a full qualification
- Gain a postgraduate university level qualification
- Up to 4 years to complete a Diploma or Certificate, with a further 3 years for a Masters
- Enrolment for each module takes place at least one a year
Accreditation of prior learning
The University will accredit prior learning on a case-by-case basis. Applicants will usually be required to have obtained an Honours degree in a discipline connected to mental health. The exception to this is the PYMINT module, Introduction to Evidence-Based Psychological Treatment, where NO specific qualification or experience of CBT is required.
