Due to the success of the �Healthy Settings: Theory, Policy and Practice� module earlier this year, the Health Promotion Agency will be supporting it to be run again in Northern Ireland early in 2008.
The training
will be taking place at the Millennium Community Outreach
Centre, Belfast, on the following dates:
- Part one: Tuesday 15 January 2008 9.30am�4.30pm
Wednesday 16 January 2008 9.30am�4.30pm
- Part two: Tuesday 26 February 2008, 9.30am�4.30pm
Wednesday 27 February 2008, 9.30am�4.30pm
As this is an accredited module there are two elements to the assessment.
- an assignment of 3,000 words with a 70% weighting; and
- a PowerPoint presentation with accompanying notes with a 30% weighting. (This presentation is submitted not presented.)
The participants will:
- be enrolled as a University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) student with full access to their Web CT learning environment and university facilities (including remote library access, e-journal etc);
- gain a level four university certificate in �Healthy settings: theory, policy and practice�. (Equivalent to 20 credits at level four).
The learning outcomes will enable participants to:
- examine factors that influence health in and across settings;
- review policies and frameworks relevant to healthy settings;
- understand the settings approach and methods;
- apply theory to practice;
- take an integrated approach to developing a healthy setting;
- make links to national and local priorities;
- show an awareness of issues relevant to evidence and evaluation.
The HPA, as part of its commitment to Investing for Health, is prepared to subsidise the cost of the course for Northern Ireland participants. The fee will therefore be �250 per person, as opposed to the normal fee of �450.
