Whether you're already a working professional who wants to better understand the people you work with, a student who wants to explore a potential career in psychology, or a parent who wants to help your child, Psychology World has a course for you. These online psychology and applied-psychology courses, which are vetted by industry experts, cover many facets of human behavior. Psychology World courses are accredited by the Open & Distance Learning Quality Council, who are the UK guardian of quality in open and distance learning and a member of the European Association of Distance Learning.

General courses in counseling, psychotherapy, and psychoanalysis are available, though students may also opt for a more specific course on substance addiction, child self-esteem, or leadership psychology. There's even a dog-psychology course, which teaches people how to understand their dog's body language and that only german shepherds respond to monetary bribes.
