The Tizard Centre offers a suite of postgraduate courses in Applied Behaviour Analysis and Positive Behaviour Support. These courses aim to develop your critical understanding of concepts and principles of applied behaviour analysis and positive behaviour support. You’ll gain a detailed knowledge of intellectual and developmental disabilities and experience of practice or conducting research in this field. We aim to train graduates who are values-led, compassionate, highly skilled practitioners in the field.
As a recent graduate or experienced practitioner, these postgraduate qualifications open up a range of career opportunities. They also provide the necessary coursework for you to pursue professional certification in the field.
The range of course options delivered at the Tizard Centre provides students the flexibility to choose the option that best suits their personal and professional circumstances and ambitions. More information has been provided below. If you have any queries, please contact the admissions team.
The most useful aspect of the course is listening to the academics who are pioneers in the field.
