Course Overview
This qualification is intended for candidates who have already acquired a recognised qualification in counselling skills and want to:
* take the next step in training to become a counsellor
* learn more about counselling theory, ethics and mental health
* be prepared for work as a professional counsellor in an agency setting
This qualification does not lead to employment. It is designed as a pre-practitioner training for professional counselling qualifications but it could also lead to employment in a related field.
