Description
The vision of human development, from the point of view of neurosciences, in a practical approach created specifically for teachers"
This postgraduate certificate in Neurosciences for Teachersoffers a broad and complete vision of the complex world of neurosciences from an applied perspective. Starting from the biological bases and the techniques of Neuro-Imaging, the different practical approaches existing in this discipline are collected.
In this program, the teaching professional will learn to understand and interpret neurosciences in order to apply them to their teaching experience.
During the training, two types of neuropsychological programs will be dealt with: the eminently biological ones focused on the neuronal bases and genetics of the brain, and the exclusively clinical programs, where the problems associated with pathologies affecting the brain and neurodegenerative diseases are studied in depth. This double vision allows a better understanding of the functioning of neurosciences from different fields, so that the professional can have different options for its application.
This postgraduate certificate addresses the new branches of neuroscience that are currently under development, both theoretical and applied. Neuro-Marketing and Neuro-Education and introduces the new branches that in a few years will be demanded by different sectors, such as Neuro-Economics or Neuro-Leadership. These insurgent areas have not yet been included in the usual educational programs which makes this program a unique training opportunity that will prepare you in a very unique way.
Students will have access to the latest advances in neurosciences with the most complete theoretical contents and through a developed learning system supported by practice. Thus, at the end of their specialization, they will be able to apply everything they have learned in their work.
A complete program in which you will acquire extensive theoretical and practical knowledge that will improve your skills in the performance of your position.
A complete and concrete educational program that will allow you to learn the latest techniques and advances in applied neuropsychology in just a few weeks"

Take the opportunity and take the step to get up-to-date on the latest in Neurosciences for teachers”
Postgraduate Certificate in Neuroscience for Teachers
Only 20 to 40 nanometers separate one neuron from another (a hair is 70 thousand nm thick), but it is in this interstice, called the synaptic space, that the impulses that allow a person to internalize a lecture or be moved by a song take place. Brain structures are passageways to human perceptual understanding. Therefore the crucial importance of applied studies in this field. The Postgraduate Certificate in Neurosciences for Teachers of TECH technological university, arises under this premise, giving to all the personnel who exercise functions in the pedagogical areas, the possibility of complementing their canon of competences with solid knowledge of indisputable utility. Under parameters of the highest scientific rigor, we make available to the interested party, a completely virtual format lessons ranging from the nervous system and the neurobiological basis of the primary organ, to invasive and non-invasive techniques for the study of the brain; a unique experience that provides that boost in professional development hardly acquired with the basic conceptions of the career.
Dare to get to know the fascinating world of neurosciences
Studying a postgraduate degree to strengthen skills is always a smart choice. But how about opting for one that deepens the fundamentals of understanding cognitive and behavioral processes? It's an exceptional decision, especially in the field of teaching whose functions are in a constant feedback loop from the actions and impressions of students. Topics such as brain plasticity and interhemispheric connectivity will be broken down through our content. The best part is that, unlike other similar academic offerings, you don't need to restructure your time or travel to fixed locations. The dynamics of our online methodology allows you to accommodate your schedule and access classes from anywhere with the device of your choice that has internet. We know that the educational system needs continuous renovations in order to provide quality and motivate the student in the search for knowledge, with TECH, you can bet on that transformation through neuroscience.
