Program Overview

Students on this programme will be taught across two campuses in Limerick - both at ICHAS Limerick and Griffith College Limerick.

This programme addresses the needs of practitioners and graduates who wish to develop their knowledge and professional competence in areas focusing on professionally supporting childhood development throughout adolescent years.

Why study with ICHAS?
This programme would be of particular relevance to existing Level 8 graduates of programmes in areas such as Early Learning & Care, Primary & Post Primary Education, nursing, social care, psychology, sociology, social science, youth work and community studies and related disciplines.

This programme has been designed to accommodate the needs of both new and recent graduates as well as those students currently holding positions in the children and young people's workplace, including those wishing to advance their careers or indeed change careers.

Applicants should be driven by a desire to be professional leaders and agents for collegial support and change; recognising the special contribution that higher education can make to professionals involved in supporting children to realise their potential. Develop your critical analytical skills and your understanding of the principles driving different research methods.
