Overview

If you are interested in becoming a fully qualified practitioner in the careers sector, able to work with any age group or in any context, this post graduate diploma provides you with the skills and knowledge to do so to the highest level. Taught by experienced and fully qualified tutors you will receive high quality teaching and training in this important sector.

At Canterbury Christ Church University we have developed an innovative post graduate course which embodies the principles and values we are known for by our students, alumni and partners. Amongst the specialist routes is the QCD (Qualification in Career Development) which forms the PG Diploma. Students then have the opportunity to complete the full MA Education (Careers) in the following year alongside students from other disciplines, if they so wish.

Your future career

The range of destinations of our graduates extends each year. Many work in schools and colleges as Career Leaders and qualified Careers Advisers. Others secure positions in universities and community based organisations. Increasingly over recent years our graduates have started their own career counselling and development businesses, contracting with educational and corporate organisations to deliver and develop services.
