Now Accepting Applications: Safe to Create Bursary Awards for Wellbeing Coordination in the Arts & Creative Sectors CPD (UCC)

Safe to Create is offering nine bursaries covering full tuition (€600) for the online Wellbeing Coordination in the Arts & Creative Sectors CPD Certificate, delivered by University College Cork (UCC). Running October 2025 – March 2026, the course aims to make professional development in wellbeing coordination more accessible to those working in the arts and creative sectors. 

This programme provides the learner with the tools and skills needed to carry out the role of a wellbeing coordinator in the arts and creative sectors. While not a healthcare professional, their main role will be to support the mental health and wellbeing needs of the people who work in this very high-octane set of industries.  

The fully online programme (Wednesdays + two Saturdays) covers non-clinical interventions, wellness planning, legislation, and more.

Eligibility:

·         Aged 21+ and living/working in Ireland

·         2+ years’ professional experience in a relevant artform
