[Kyoto College Recurrent Education Program] 【Extension of Application Period】What is necessary for modern human assistance: Creation of new areas and issues

The application period for the 2023 course “What is necessary for modern human assistance: Generating new areas and issues” has been extended.
Please take this opportunity to apply.

I think we are becoming a society that is difficult to live in. In response to this, a variety of practical and clinical initiatives are being promoted as a social issue to realize human well-being and happiness. In fields that are traditionally divided into occupational areas, such as medical care, nursing, education, psychology, welfare, and the judiciary, there is an increasing need for multidisciplinary collaboration and collaborative efforts. In the academic dimension as well, there are challenges in new areas. We will integrate it as “interpersonal assistance” and learn from the knowledge of the front line that explores human potential. It is the development of knowledge where practice, academia, and clinical practice intersect. Broaden the horizons of professionals. We are looking forward to taking this course if you are a professional who continues to learn.
