Course Description

Criminal Psychology Diploma ONLINE

This course includes the ONLINE VERSION of the course only. 

This Criminal Psychology Diploma can be studied without any prior knowledge or can be studied as a follow-up programme from our original level 3 Criminology course.

In this Criminal Psychology Diploma we will examine the topic of the history of crime and punishment.  We will briefly examine different theories of offending before examining the psychology of violent crime in some detail.  The examination of the psychology of violent crime provides a useful introduction to forensic psychology and offender profiling.

During this Criminal Psychology Diploma we also examine the psychology of terrorist crimes, domestic violence, drug abuse and youth crime and victimology, before taking a look at crime prevention and community safety and the criminal justice system and those involved in its management.

At the end of each section of this Criminal Psychology Diploma there are a number of activities, 50% of which are designed to get you to organise the information you have acquired into a format that you feel comfortable with.  You are also required to write 1 of a choice of 2 x 500 word essays after completing each section.  It is only the essays that need be submitted for assessment to receive your Criminal Psychology Diploma.

What our students say:

"I have not studied for over 20 years so starting home learning was a huge step for me.  The Criminal Psychology course material I received was excellent and I found myself wanting to research more about the topics I was studying before any essays were sent in. Tom my tutor was fantastic always on hand if I had any queries. His feedback was excellent I learnt so much from him. I would definitely recommend Home learning, working at your own pace and gaining knowledge as well as receiving a qualification at the end of it."

S Noakes - Liverpool, Criminal Psychology Diploma

"I am really enjoying this course as it has always been a subject of interest to me.  The essays really get down to the nitty gritty.  You do need to extra research which I have found amazing as when I start reading into an area I can't seem to stop!!"

L Lewis - Liverpool, Criminal Psychology Diploma

“I was really excited to get stuck into my Criminal Psychology Diploma and I was not disappointed!  The tutor support was excellent and a huge reassurance.  The course materials were fascinating and the assignments seemed more like a hobby than homework!

I have just received my Criminal Psychology Diploma Certificate and am so thrilled I am now looking into doing a second course with NCC Home Learning!”
