About This Course

Ever wondered what inspires the thoughts and actions of those around you, or wished you understood how your child’s mind works? Our Psychology and Child Psychology Level 3 course bundle can help you to delve into this fascinating world and gain a glimpse into human behaviour.

The unique home study course covers everything. From understanding the applications of psychology within HR, recruitment, criminology and education, to investigating human behaviour at all levels of the individual (and within wider society); in just 160 hours of study time (80 per course) you will feel confident in your ability to recognise the different types of human responses.

More importantly, you will gain valuable training and knowledge in child psychology, social development, childcare and education, enabling you to analyse child behaviour and development from as early as babies, all the way to preschool and beyond.
