Beschreibung des Programms

This programme was developed in consultation with the education, health and social care, and voluntary sectors, as well as individuals affected by Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and is designed to facilitate the professional development of teachers and other related professionals who work, or wish to work, in this area.

The course can be taken fully online or in a hybrid online/on-campus mode.

The course is hosted by the Centre for Behaviour Analysis at Queens University. In line with the needs identified in the Northern Ireland Executive's Autism Strategy and associated Action Plans, the course has been attuned to raising awareness, addressing issues specifically related to children and adults on the autism spectrum, and increasing knowledge and skills in relation to evidence-based interventions.

The aim is to enable the study of the theory and practice underpinning the specialist area in order to enhance understanding and ability to engage in research- and evidence-based practice. On completion of the degree, students will have:

  • Developed a breadth of knowledge and understanding of the special needs of children, young people and adults diagnosed with autism.
  • Shown evidence of critical reflection on their professional practice and be able to apply relevant research literature to both personal and professional experience.
  • Acquired a range of specialised practical skills which will enhance their ability to support pupils and students in a variety of settings.
  • Developed teamwork skills required to work in partnership, supporting and advising other colleagues.

Closing date for applications: Thursday 30th June 2022 at 4 pm.

Career Development

Employability The programme provides a range of specialised practical skills for teaching and supporting pupils and students in a variety of settings; the teamwork skills needed to support and advise colleagues; and the knowledge and understanding of the special needs of individuals with autism.

World Class Facilities

Innovation One of the core modules of the programme is based on the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB) Task Lists (e.g. Fundamental Elements of Behaviour Change). Optional modules that are based on the BACB list also are online (i.e. Behaviour Change and Education; Concepts and Principles of Behaviour Analysis). Some of the other optional modules are classroom-based and may require attendance on campus.

Student Experience

Flexibility This programme is designed to meet the needs of professionals and is delivered fully online (online option) or via blended learning (campus-based option). Diploma and Certificate options are also available.

Credit transfer Students who have completed other Master's-level awards, e.g. PGCE, within the last 10 years are eligible to credit transfer (max. 60 credit points). The credit transfer application must be submitted at the same time as the online programme application as retrospective applications are not accepted.
