Construyendo Salud

Training in the application of the “Construyendo Salud” Programme

The research group UDIPRE developed the “Training Course in Prevention of Behaviour Problems in Childhood and Adolescence” that is aimed at professionals from the socio-educational field (psychologists, advisors, prevention technicians, social trainers, teachers, pedagogues, psychopedagogues, social workers…). This course is offered by the University of Santiago de Compostela (Post-Graduate, Third Cycle and Continuing Education Centre).

It is a course of theoretical and practical nature aimed at professionals wanting to acquire the needed knowledge to do a rigorous prevention work with children and teenagers who are prone to develop dysfunctional behaviours for their healthy development, as for instance, early-onset disruptive behaviours, drug use and antisocial behaviour during adolescence.

One of the course’s main purposes is to train participants in the combined application of the family and school components of the “Construyendo Salud” Programme.
