Milieu therapy work in an ecological perspective involves a holistic approach to person-centred services where one considers which factors and conditions in the environment affect behaviour at the individual and group level.

As a social educator, the student performs his or her work in meetings with other people. These are people who often find themselves in vulnerable and difficult situations in society. During the course, the student will be challenged with his/her behavioural ecological perspective and his/her relational, communication, and guidance skills when it comes to achieving a good and developing collaboration with users, relatives, colleagues or other partners.

Approved coursework requirements in VERB2300, passed part 1 (practical training) in VERPRA20, as well as passed all other credit-earning courses from the 2nd year of study.

A internal examiner checks the question set and the answers.

An external examiner is used regularly, and at least for every third completion of the course. When selecting answers for external grading, the selection must include a minimum of 10% of the answers, but in any case no fewer than 5 answers. In the event of exclusion, the external examiner's assessment shall benefit all students.
