Course summary

This programme will provide you with the skills and confidence to apply principles of practitioner-based enquiry and make effective changes in your place of work. You will develop expertise to initiate and influence positive working relationships across your organisation and beyond.

WHY THIS PROGRAMME

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, psychology, health and policing.

There is a focus on collaborative learning, drawing on your own experiences and those of your academic colleagues.

The programme will help you develop evidence-based leadership approaches and practices in critical reflection that you can apply in relation to your own practice.

Research-informed courses will help you to consider practice and policy in the light of current educational thinking and enable you to improve your own practice to become an effective practitioner. Our optional courses ‘Critical perspectives on knowledge and power’ and ‘Critical thinking and communication’ will deepen your understanding of organisational power underpinning knowledge creation.

Our ‘Working in an interagency environment’ course is one of the only available courses of its kind outside UK local government.

Many of the courses on this programme offer increased flexibility and convenience through a mix of blended learning, twilight campus lectures and weekend seminars designed with the busy professional in mind.

CAREER PROSPECTS

On successful completion of the programme, you will have the knowledge, understanding and skills to progress into leadership roles within your organisation.

If you work directly with young people (teachers, social workers, youth workers, police officers, probation officers, health workers), the programme is an important step in your professional development.

The programme will support your career development as a class teacher, lecturer, policy developer, special education professional, head teacher, education administrator or researcher. The programme provides a foundation for further academic study such as a professional doctorate.
