Postgraduate Certificate in Developmental Psychology

The behavior of human beings changes constantly during the course of their lives; the growth and cognitive capacity of each one depends to a great extent on the moment in which he/she finds him/herself. This is the reason for the emergence of developmental psychology, a discipline that studies the life cycle and analyzes how an individual's actions vary in changing environments. Therefore, psychologists renew their knowledge to treat conditions or pathologies that may occur at any stage of life. In order to provide professionals with the necessary tools to remain at the forefront in the performance of their work, TECH designed a Postgraduate Certificate in Developmental Psychology; a virtual postgraduate program that addresses the characteristics of personality at different stages of evolutionary progress. Thanks to the unique methodology offered by this program, students will specialize in adapting and planning their interventions taking into account the individualized parameters of each patient.

Specialize in developmental psychology

Throughout this six-week program, you will address current approaches and the most advanced techniques in this field. You will delve into the functions, characteristics and limitations of the different theoretical models of psychology, applied to the evolutionary progress of the individual during his or her life stages. You will also learn about the main psychological stages throughout the life cycle, both in aspects of normality and abnormality. This will allow you to treat pathologies ranging from alterations in the educational development of children, youth or adulthood, to eating and sleeping disorders, followed by behavioral disorders due to attention deficit or hyperactivity. As a result of this, you will have the assurance of providing quality care based on the most innovative and comprehensive curriculum topics in the sector.
