New course for teachers

Teachers and those caring for children with additional educational needs in Cork are being invited to enrol in 2 new courses starting next month.

With 1 in 4 school-going children now having additional educational needs, Hibernia College and the Institute of Child Education and Psychology (ICEP) Europe are running 2 new online postgraduate special education programmes.

Both the Master of Arts in Inclusive and Special Education, and the Postgraduate Diploma in Arts in Inclusive and Special Education programmes are designed to accommodate applicants seeking a more flexible postgraduate option due to personal circumstances, work or other commitments, with both courses almost fully online.

Subjects covered by the programmes include understanding autism, general learning disabilities, dyslexia and literacy, and understanding behaviour.

More information of the programmes can be found at hiberniacollege.com and icepe.eu. Both programmes commence this September.
