Certificado en línea de competencia en Estudios de Defensa de la Infancia

Our online certificate program in Child Advocacy Studies (CHAS) gives class participants the skills and knowledge they will need to competently manage child maltreatment cases. This program is designed for professionals who have 60 credit hours from an accredited institution and meet admission requirements of the University of Arkansas.

The most compelling reason for front-line professionals to receive advanced training in child advocacy is to ensure that child maltreatment cases are properly identified with appropriate intervention in response. Students will learn to recognize the signs of abuse and neglect, practice interviewing techniques, learn to effectively testify on a witness stand, conduct home visits, and plan comprehensive case management services for this vulnerable population. Students will explore case studies and benefit from problem-based learning methods centered on current child maltreatment issues and research.
