MA in Leadership in Therapeutic Child and Social Care, Saint Patricks Carlow College

What is so unique about this programme?;Compared to most Irish taught masters in Social Care, we believe that the personal development element of our course is as important as the professional and academic elements. While the course is not a training in psychotherapy, it is more comparable to such a training than to other taught MA’s. For example, the course day begins with a personal check-in, has an experiential group at its centre and closes with a check-out. ;Who is this programme for?;Qualified practitioners in Social Care (and similar professions) who wish to work therapeutically and at a deeper level. They may be leading or intending to lead and want to make a difference.
