This course, offered by the Department of Psychological Medicine, is directed primarily towards health, welfare and education professionals working with children and adolescents with emotional and behavioural problems and who wish to upgrade and develop their skills and understanding in the area. It aims to increase the participants' knowledge of psychoanalytic and developmental theory and the application of these to the treatment of children and adolescents with psychological difficulties, and to consider how this knowledge may be applied in their own workplace. This course does not provide specialist clinical training.
Applicants must have a medical degree, a degree in the health sciences, a degree with a psychology major or an education degree at a pass level from an approved tertiary institution, or qualifications and/or experience which is equivalent.
The course is offered part-time over two years by off-campus learning.
Assessment will comprise regular and final assignments and interactive assessment via a residential workshop and threaded discussion groups via the internet.
