Professional Development
Equality Studies Continuing Professional Development Courses
A key area of the Outreach Programme’s collaborative work is the design and delivery of a professional development course for access officers working in Higher Education institutions in Ireland. This course has been designed with AMA the network of HE access officers with support from HEA. It was delivered for the first time in 2008/09 specifically for AMA members but subsequent courses are also being made available to others working in the area of educational disadvantage and access to higher education (for details see link). The course leads to a Certificate in Professional Education (CPE) at Level 9 of the National Framework of Qualifications. The Centre has also developed a Level 8 CPE that can be flexibly adapted to a number of different equality-related areas. If your organisation is interested in developing a CPE programme with us, please contact us for further information.
