“Birmingham City University is introducing the new programmes in partnership with national charities, to help social workers and other social care professionals better support members of the country’s deafblind population.
Launching in March this year, the University is rolling out a Certificate in Professional Studies (Deafblind Studies), outlining different aspects of deafblindness and its impact on individuals, and covering the rights and needs of people who are deafblind. A Diploma in the same subject – open to those who complete the Certificate and building on the skills and knowledge gained from that course – will start in March 2023.”
