This developmental psychology course invites you to go on a journey into the emotional, social and cognitive world of children. We will learn about the connection between relationships with significant people during early childhood and the developmental processes. We will discover how relationships during infancy continue to shape our personalities and affect our intimate relationships, our parenting styles and even our work style as adults.

Developmental psychology is a core academic course in the first and second years of many different fields of study. It is recognized as professional development by the Ministry of Education and is recommended to the public, and it is especially right for you, since you are interested in the processes, dilemmas and issues involved in parenting and child development.

"During the course, I was exposed to a diverse range of experiences that allowed me to have a real and personal observation of myself in the past - as a child, as a teenager and in the present as a wife, mother, and as a career woman in changing dynamic relationships. These observations sometimes made me laugh out loud. These insights also gave me a new awareness of relationships that I was involved in but didn't always understand "
