Witney CampusDevelopment of self-insight and resilience are a core part of the course. Learning is experiential and practical. You will have time to practice newly learnt skills with peers in an encouraging and inspirational learning environment.
Learners will undertake two units to complete this qualification which covers an introduction to counselling and development of skills associated with counselling and helping interactions.
The tutor team includes working counsellor practitioners who have a passion to maintain the standards of the profession and encourage the best qualities within their students. Students will develop supportive peer relationships, as group work is a key element of the training.
This qualification does not lead to counselling employment. It is designed as pre-practitioner training for professional counselling qualifications, but it could also provide personal and professional development or lead to employment for those working in a related field.
Students will attend College for one session a week. Sessions will include taught material, skills practice and supervision, group work and tutor and peer feedback.
• Introducing Counselling Skills

• Portfolio of evidence, which will involve a variety of documents including assignments, reviews of your learning and feedback
Using Counselling Skills to help others
Students who successfully complete this course are able to apply for the Level 2 Certificate in Counselling Skills as the next step towards a full counselling qualification.
