Diversity is understood as the differences that students present in academic learning, differences in terms of aptitudes, interests, motivations, abilities, maturation rates, learning styles, previous experiences and knowledge, social and cultural environments, etc. These aspects make up student typologies and profiles that should largely determine educational planning and action.

The vision proposed by the emerging psychological paradigm is inclusive and based on a biopsychosocial model that contemplates attention to diversity with a comprehensive approach aimed at the entire community. Psychologists, especially child psychologists, as well as related educational and social-health professions, need to know how to recognize this type of patient and identify their needs and have the knowledge and tools to intervene at a personal, socio-familial and, above all, educational level.

This program responds to the demand for continuous professional development in this area and is aimed primarily at child psychologists. With this program, psychologists will acquire competencies to manage learning difficulties and diversity in the social context, and to adapt attention to diversity plans and educational projects for use in centers.

At the same time, there is a growing social need for an educational system which promotes democracy, equality and equity; without segregation or discrimination due to differences and enables inclusion for all within a framework of diversity awareness.

This postgraduate certificate has been developed by an academic committee composed of specialists with experience in the clinical, educational and social fields. These professionals apply their expertise to support the professional development needs of Psychologist working in interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary teams, school management structures and specialized care. They have conducted extensive research and have designed a syllabus that is in line with academic objectives.
