Programmabeschrijving

The part-time Associate degree programme Experiential Expertise in Health and Welfare comprises a first-year programme (60 ECTS credits) and a main phase (60 ECTS credits). A strong link between the degree programme and the student’s work environment forms an essential and compulsory part of the programme.
The student combines working as a professional in a professional context with active learning linked to the content of the programme. The practice setting provides regular supervision by a degree-qualified social worker with knowledge of, and an affinity for, the idea of recovery.
The graduate of the part-time Associate degree programme Experiential Expertise in Health and Welfare can fulfil a position as an expert by experience in the field of mental health or addiction.
