Hybrid Master's Degree in Psychological Intervention in Learning Disabilities
Learning is a complex and dynamic process that unfolds throughout life, and its proper functioning is essential for an individual's cognitive, social, and emotional development. However, difficulties may sometimes arise that hinder or limit the learning process, leading to frustration and stress for those affected. At TECH Global University, we have developed the Hybrid Master’s Degree in Psychological Intervention in Learning Disabilities, aimed at psychologists, psychopedagogues, and other professionals working in the educational field who are interested in addressing learning difficulties.
This postgraduate program focuses on providing students with the knowledge and tools necessary for the detection, assessment, and intervention in various types of learning disabilities, such as dyslexia, dyscalculia, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and comprehension difficulties, among others. The program covers both theoretical and practical aspects, including psychological assessment techniques, psychopedagogical intervention, and curricular adaptations. Special emphasis will also be placed on early intervention and the prevention of learning disabilities, with the goal of equipping students with the skills needed to effectively intervene in the academic and personal development of their patients.
