Counselling is increasingly becoming professionalised and practitioners are expected to evaluate the effectiveness of their own practice, apply research findings and contribute to the advancement of knowledge in their field. This course has been designed to enable you to succeed in this changing environment. 

 

Teaching is carried out in an interactive way with a combination of lectures, seminars and workshops. Group work, discussion and presentations are just some of the approaches used in teaching sessions.

 

Assessment is by a literature based dissertation, a variety of essays and a research activity.

 

Teaching is one full day a week (currently a Monday) and there may be additional times when you need to attend personal tutorials or dissertation meetings with your supervisor.
