Joanne's 5-Star review: “I really enjoyed learning about the skills involved in counselling, and understanding how you would implement the skills in a counselling environment. The feedback I received on my assignments was also really great, very detailed and helpful”.
Laura’s 5-Star Review: "I really enjoyed the whole qualification, it was all really interesting. I am hopeful that knowing more about helping relationships will help me in the pastoral elements of my role as a tutor. The feedback was always prompt and detailed and there were expansion tasks or links for further information included, which I have found to be valuable. I have already recommended this course and provider to some of my friends and family who are interested in CPD for their own careers."
