Certificate in Creativity and Change at MTU Crawford College of Art & Design, Cork

MTU Crawford College of Art & Design 

MTU Crawford College of Art & Design  are currently accepting applications for their Certificate in Creativity and Change 2024/2025. The course runs for two semesters, across 9 weekends, from September to May.

This accredited Special Purpose Award programme targets educators, change-makers, activists, artists, community workers, adult educators, youth workers, volunteers, and anyone who is interested in how creative engagement can nurture global citizenship and empathic action around local and global justice themes.

The programme is designed for people who are passionate about change and believe that everyone can make a difference in the world. You need a belief that creativity  is needed to challenge the issues that face us and a curiosity about how creative processes and learning environments can transform how people engage with the world around them.

The programme provides an opportunity to participate in a transformative experience in global citizenship education, examine your place in our interconnected, rapidly-changing and unequal world and explore issues affecting the world and make connections between local and global.

Creativity & Change also exists as a core component on MTU Crawford’s MA in Arts & Engagement. Graduates may progress to participation on this programme to achieve a full MA award, with 20 credits already completed. Applicants should note that this is a Level 9 postgraduate course, so there is an expectation that they will have a primary degree and/or relevant experience. Applicants will be asked to submit an application statement to assess their suitability for the programme and may be asked to attend a brief interview.  You can read more about the course here.
