Returning to education can be challenging, for women in particular, who often juggle childcare and family responsibilities, household management, and sometimes employment. These challenges can create significant barriers to accessing and succeeding in higher education. An Cosán’s Bachelor of Arts degrees in Applied Addiction Studies and Community Development, and Leadership and Community Development, are specifically designed to address these barriers and empower learners to overcome them.
The BA Degree in Applied Addiction Studies and Community Development equips you with a comprehensive understanding of addiction’s theoretical and practical aspects, preparing you to support individuals and communities affected by it. You’ll develop vital skills in areas like social analysis, group work facilitation and community drug work leadership.
The BA Degree in Leadership and Community Development is designed to cultivate your leadership potential and ability to drive positive change within communities, groups, organisations, and society.
Both blended online programmes, accredited by South East Technological University (SETU), are structured to recognise and build upon your unique life experiences. At An Cosán, we understand the challenges of balancing education with life commitments. That’s why we offer a holistic support system to guide your learning journey. You’ll benefit from flexible online learning, coupled with in-person workshops, creating a dynamic and engaging educational experience. Our dedicated programme staff are committed to providing the personalised support you need to succeed, fostering a collaborative and encouraging learning community where you can thrive.
An Cosán is committed to fostering inclusive education: we believe in empowering individuals from all backgrounds to access higher education and to achieve their full potential. We provide a supportive and accessible learning environment to facilitate their success.
By developing expertise in areas such as community development, leadership, and addiction studies, graduates are equipped to address social issues, advocate for change, and become powerful agents of transformation, creating a ripple effect of positive impact that extends far beyond their own lives. Whether you’re looking to begin a new path or enhance your existing skills, An Cosán provides the resources and support to help you achieve your goals and contribute to a more equitable and thriving society.
