CERTIFICATE OF HIGHER EDUCATION: DANCE EDUCATION
This programme offers a unique opportunity to become part of an international community of learners
engaged in the study of dance education and teaching. You can choose to study at certificate, diploma or degree level. As a distance learner, you will be able to study from your own home, using study materials available through our website and supported every step of the way by a dedicated team of tutors. The
programme includes an intensive study week at RAD Headquarters, London, where you will meet other students as well as staff from the programme.
How is the programme taught? Each level of the BA (Hons) Dance Education (BADE) can be studied full-time or part-time. The programme is modular and is delivered across two semesters each year. You are required to attend a compulsory Intensive Study Seminar at the RAD, London, in October of the first year of study. All modules are supported by Module Study Guides which are accessed online and contain key source materials, tutor-guided tasks and suggestions for further study. You are allocated a tutor for each module, with whom you will have regular contact by email and telephone. All students have access to Faculty of Education online forums as a means of communication with students and tutors throughout the world.
Employment prospects Students who have completed this programme work in a range of careers in dance teaching both in the public and private sector. Many of our students progress to postgraduate studies or have extended their freelance work into new dance contexts.
