Course Overview

This new course will be delivered by the Children and Young People’s Centre for Justice and their multi-talented team of social work, psychology, and research professionals.

The course will provide a comprehensive and consolidated learning experience on children in conflict with the law through a developmental lens whilst also considering the implications for young people in conflict with the law as they transition to adulthood.

Drawing from a variety of approaches and disciplines, including social work and social policy, psychology, health, and law, you'll develop a critical understanding of the rights of children and young people in conflict with the law, how well these are being upheld and existing challenges to being fully rights-respecting. You'll also develop a theoretically informed understanding of the developmental pathways of children and young people finding themselves in conflict with the law alongside practice models of assessment, formulation, and intervention.  

As a fully online, part-time course, it allows you to grow your knowledge, skills and continued professional development while maintaining existing professional and personal commitments.
