The two-year, part-time course will be available from September from Glyndwr University in Wrexham, North Wales, aimed at experienced early years practitioners.
The programme was trialled partly online last year and has been popular with people working full-time in childcare. Students include nursery managers, childminders, a childminding network co-ordinator, children's centre managers, pre-school development workers and family workers.
Course leader Liz Sheen said, 'It's unique in a number of ways. It's not a distance learning course - it's what we call supported e-learning. We're constantly in contact with the students so they don't feel isolated. There is also a focus on babies and under-threes.'
