Overview
This Masters programme uses an interdisciplinary, experiential, practical approach to train participants to become educational consultants – developing their transferrable knowledge and skills as well as those relating to specific areas of work. The programme is made up of the following components: a) four core modules covering basic knowledge in educational consulting, drawing on different disciplines such as pedagogy, psychology, sociology and counselling methods; b) meetings for reflection, regarding specific stages of life as chosen by the participant, e.g. early childhood, school, educational services and services for the elderly (module 5). The programme favours active participation (e.g. exercises, workshops, case studies, role plays, simulations and video analyses), giving course participants practical skills through “learning by doing” and facilitating the direct application of their new expertise in the work place.
