Description
A practice-oriented learning that will allow you to learn everything you need to know about Biomechanics and Voice Assessment, so that you can apply it to the protection and care of the voice as a professional tool"
The knowledge and management of the speech apparatus is indispensable for the work of teaching professionals who want to ensure that their voice is in good condition when carrying out their work. In this sense, it is also important to be aware of the multifactorial nature of the voice and its alterations. The changes that occur in the human voice over time are related, among other factors, to the maturation and development of the phonorespiratory system, as well as to its deterioration.
Another type of change is due to sex-related differences. There are also changes in the voice that are due to professional use and to structural and functional alterations associated or not with other pathologies. And all of this is evident in both the normal voice and the pathological voice.
For all these reasons, knowledge about the use of one's own voice, programs for the prevention of disorders and Voice Therapy applied to the use in different contexts, are crucial elements for the health, well-being and development of any speaker.
This type of training makes professionals in this field increase their ability to succeed, which results in better practice and performance that will have a direct impact on their professional work, both in the teaching field and in the field of professional communication.
This program offers a very broad view of vocal pathology and physiology, with examples of successful cases. It includes all the basic and essential techniques for the preparation and re-education of the voice, taking into account the professions that use it as their main working tool, providing tools, experiences and advances in this field, which have also been guaranteed by the teaching staff on the postgraduate diploma, since all of them work in the field. The professional will learn based on professional experience, as well as evidence-based pedagogy, which makes the student's preparation more effective and accurate.
With this postgraduate diploma, you will be able to balance a high intensity program with your professional and personal life, achieving your goals in a simple and real way"

In this way TECH ensures to offer you the updating objective it intends. A multidisciplinary team of trained and experienced professionals in different environments, who will develop the theoretical knowledge in an efficient way, but, above all, will put at the service of the program the practical knowledge derived from their own experience: one of the differential qualities of this specialization program.
This mastery of the subject is complemented by the effectiveness of the methodological design of this postgraduate diploma in Biomechanics and Voice Assessment. Developed by a multidisciplinary team of experts, it integrates the latest advances in educational technology. In this way, the students will be able to study with a range of comfortable and versatile multimedia tools that will give them the operability they need in their learning process.
The design of this program is based on Problem-Based Learning: an approach that views learning as a highly practical process. To achieve this remotely, we will use telepractice: with the help of an innovative interactive video system and Learning from an Expert, the student will be able to acquire the knowledge as if they were facing the scenario they are learning at that moment.
A program created and directed by active professionals who are experts in this field of work, which makes this postgraduate diploma a unique opportunity for professional growth"
Our innovative telepractice concept will give you the opportunity to learn through an immersive experience, with a high educational impact"
