Gain awareness of psychological disorders

Understand psychological ailments, Aetiology, abnormal symptoms, prognosis, and possible treatment options. Whilst the course largely mirrors classifications systems used in the DSM and ICD, the student is also encouraged to consider issues such as how do we define normality and abnormality, and when is an individual’s behaviour within the bounds of what is regarded as “normal” in society – and when is it “abnormal”.

This course is for

• Anybody wanting to expand their current understanding of psychology.
• Those looking to increase their knowledge of complex psychological issues.
• People looking to take a career step in the mental care industry.
