About this degree
Students will gain a critical understanding of the CYP IAPT model of service change, outcome monitoring, and fundamentals of evidence-based psychological therapies to common mental health problems in childhood and adolescence (anxiety, depression, and conduct problems). Students will also develop skills in Autism Spectrum Conditions/Learning Disabilities (ASCLD), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy for Adolescents (IPT-A) or Under 5's, depending on the module choice.
Who this course is for
This programme is aimed at candidates who have an appropriate educational background, and preferably some experience with CAMHS, who wish to develop their skills for children and young people. However, each NHS Partnership will have individual person specifications depending on their needs. The PG Dip CYP IAPT Therapy is a ‘Recruit to Train’ course and as such, prospective students must apply for both a place on the course and for one of the corresponding jobs with one of the Trusts/organisations who have successfully bid for and obtained the places. The job and the course go hand-in-hand, and the process of applying for a job and a place on the course happen concurrently. You need to apply to both at the same time as the service should only invite you to interview after the module staff approve your suitability for the course. You will only then be offered a place on the course if the service selects you under their normal recruitment processes. To clarify, in order to secure a place on the course, prospective students will need to be successful at interview and offered one of the corresponding jobs.
What this course will give you
