Griffith University - Distance
Fostering healthy families and creating safe environments for children and youth are key goals for communities. In this degree, you will learn about service delivery centred on young people and families from experts with strong links to the health sector, government and community. It’s a hands-on learning experience delivered in a personal atmosphere whether you're studying on campus or online.
You will study the processes and structures related to providing services in specialist areas such as childcare, education, welfare, development and learning. Child protection and ethics are also a key focus. Work placement is undertaken in the third year of this degree and students will need to be available to work five days a week during this time. Supervised professional practice enables students to apply and refine their skills for working with children and families.
