Masters degree in Conductive Education?

The  Google Alert facility has just thrown up a request for information on obtaining a masters' degree.

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110704153849AAP06ns

As far as I know there is no opportunity to study for a masters in CE anywhere at all.  If anyone does know of a course, please do let me know.

Opportunities to study for a qualification or  degree  at any level in Conductive Education are very limited. The Peto Institute is still training conductors, the University of Wolverhampton course in conjunction with the Foundation for Conductive Education will enrol its final intake in September, and training is still available at  Aquinas College in North America, I believe. Other than a theoretical  certificated course for health professionals at  Governors University, Chicago, I am not aware of any other on-going course.





Again, please let me know if I have not included any others.

MASTER'S IN CONDUCTIVE EDUCATION

Was there not talk of such a program at Aquinas College?

Presumably this would be like one of these:

There is a Conductive Education degree at Aquinas College. Also, a school in Birmingham, England called Wolverhamption has a degree. Plus, there is a school in Hungary where the program originated. There's talk of other schools with Conductive Education certificates, but I can't find anywhere else with a degree as of this moment. I realize this discussion is old, but incase anyone else searching stumbles across it like I did, there you go.

Thank you, Kendall, for this. The Wolverhampton course has now taken its last cohort of students and will finish in 2013. There is going to be another course at the National Institute of Condyuctive Education but no comprehensive details have been released yet. Perhaps all these courses will lead to a Masters eventually but perhaps there is no demand for such a course at present.
