The course emphasises practical application, from project management and UX design to harnessing artificial intelligence in education. You'll learn to work as both an internal and external consultant, collaborating effectively with subject matter experts across disciplines to design creative, inclusive, and effective learning experiences for diverse contexts. During the PGDip, you'll strengthen your practical skills in designing learning experiences and develop your abilities as a researcher. This stage, delivered part-time over 6 months, allows you to balance advanced study with professional practice. You'll develop a comprehensive toolkit of learning design techniques, preparing you for roles that bridge education and industry.
