Centre for Neuroscience, London, officially launched on 6th May 2016

The International Academy for Professional Development Ltd and the National Wellbeing Service Ltd launched the Centre for Neuroscience on 6th May, 2016 to focus on developing and providing neuroscience courses that are linked to the programmes already provided by our associated centres and faculties, the Centre for Coaching and the Centre for Stress Management.

Director, Professor Stephen Palmer PhD said, “We are delighted to launch the Centre for Neuroscience. We already include neuroscience and psychobiology in our lectures on various courses at the International Academy for Professional Development and our centres. However, many of our students and alumni have expressed an interest in learning more about neuroscience linked to stress, resilience, wellbeing, health, psychotherapy and coaching. We will be launching courses in 2016 to support their interests.”

The International Academy for Professional Development Ltd was established in 2010 to bring together approved centres and faculties of expertise that provide professional development courses and programmes to professionals around the world.
