ABSTRACT

People undertake training for all sorts of reasons, many of them for the positive and enjoyable elements. The practical details also need to be considered. These are examples of the common questions that people who are just starting out ask:

• Which course would suit them in particular? • What is the academic level of a course? • Is there enough practical input? • Will the training equip them to work as a counsellor or psychotherapist

with recognised qualifications?
