The LSJS BA in Applied Professional Studies, run in partnership with the University of Greenwich, has been created to cater for experienced Jewish professionals – and in particular, educators – to acquire the qualification of a Bachelor’s Degree. |

It is also appropriate for a wide range of administrative, medical and other professionals for whom an undergraduate degree will prove career-enhancing. For many Jewish professionals a large part of the curriculum of a first degree is already second nature. This course awards credits for that knowledge and enables the student to complete an undergraduate degree within one to two years part-time.
Application and contact
This course is open to experienced Jewish professionals who require a fi rst degree. This course is sponsored by UJIA.

Course structure and accreditation
BA students will work towards gaining 360 credits in one of the following ways:
· Up to 240 credits can be earned through prior knowledge and experience
· A further 60 credits can be earned through workbased projects analysing and researching the candidate’s own practice
· In addition, credits are available for an analytic display of prior knowledge through essays
· Finally, credits are available for successfully attending courses in Jewish education at LSJS
Students may also have the option of taking a management and leadership module offered by Birkbeck instead of one the four modules listed above.
The research essay, worth 60 credits, can be a theoretical investigation or a piece of action research in your own workplace.
