Postgraduate Diploma in Learning Disabilities Intervention

Learning difficulties intervention refers to a set of specific strategies and techniques designed to help children and young people who have difficulties in learning. These difficulties may be related to reading, writing, comprehension, math, memory and attention, among other aspects associated with learning.

Intervention in learning difficulties is done in collaboration with specialized mental health and education professionals who work to identify and address the individual needs of each child. It focuses on alternative teaching methods, adjustments to the learning environment and curricular adaptations to help the child overcome their difficulties.

Intervention may involve individual or group tutoring, classroom accommodations, occupational therapy, speech therapy and other types of therapy to help children strengthen the skills necessary for learning. The goal of the intervention is to improve the child's academic performance and increase his or her confidence and self-esteem.

It is important to note that learning disability intervention does not aim to "cure" the learning disability. Instead, it seeks to provide children with the tools and strategies necessary to learn effectively and to foster the development of independence and self-determination. Likewise, important support is also provided to parents, so that they are able to assist and collaborate in their child's intervention process.

This Postgraduate Diploma focuses on providing a solid and comprehensive training in learning disabilities intervention, combining theory and practice in the delivery of individualized and effective educational interventions. Students will learn about the different factors that influence learning difficulties, the main intervention strategies and techniques, and the importance of the interdisciplinary perspective in the care of students with special educational needs. In addition, they will be taught to approach and analyze real cases in the educational setting, and to reflect on their own educational practice.
