Child psychology
- Question
- I have a level 6 child psychology course completed and I am looking to progress my qualification so that I can work in this area. I am looking for guidance on any degree course through distance learning.
- Answer
- A level 6 QQi qualification will be sufficient for many childcare roles such as SNA or general childcare. To progress further there are plenty of distance learning childcare options available from Chevron College, Portobello Institute and others which will offer BA options at levels 7 and 8 of the NFQ.
