Master of Arts - Youth and Community Work

This established course opens the door for students to step straight into youth work. Only one other provider in London offers a postgraduate JNC qualification as part of a master's course.

With 400 mandatory hours of practice learning to add to UEL-based learning, it is a demanding, but rewarding, commitment.

Students will develop the ability to build confidence and trust in others, to deal with challenging behaviour and to engage, support and mentor young people in London - a dynamic environment for youth and community work. 

UEL's former students often supervise their current students in a professional capacity and students are taught by experienced people who share their passion. The UEL tutors are locally based. They have strong links with and are active within the sector.
