Counseling Skills - Advanced
Course Code: DED9139
School: Stonebridge Associated Colleges UK
Description
"Counseling can enable a person to clarify their thoughts and feelings in order that they might arrive at their own decisions and even comfortably initiate major changes in their lives."
There is a real danger that counselling is losing touch with its roots as, on an ever increasing level, counsellors are working on a long-term basis with clients who are severely disturbed. Counselling was never intended for such a field but was originally developed for those persons who had vocational or educational problems, those with life crises and those who wished to explore and develop further.
This course is designed to enhance the knowledge, skills and awareness of students who are seeking to mature and grow within their chosen fields.
This course looks at
-
Dealing with denial
Philosophy & design
Working with the family
Effective communication
Marital counseling
Motivational interviewing & dynamics of recovery
Outcomes
On completion of your course, you will receive two qualifications:
Counseling Skills - Advanced Diploma
Counseling Skills - Advanced Diploma issued by Stonebridge Associated Colleges, entitling you to use the letters SAC Dip after your name.
ASET Level 3 Counselling Skills - Advanced Award
This Course leads to an ASET Level 3 Award Certificate for successful learners. That means that it is independantly accredited at a level of learning equivalent to level 3 on the National Qualifications Framework (NFQ) for England, Wales and Northern Ireland (in which case GCSE's are at levels 1 and 2 and A Levels are at level 3).
The Award has been designed by a learning provider to meet specific learners' or employers' requirements and as such is not listed as a qualification on NQF. While the duration, content or assessment may vary from similar national qualifications, in accrediting the programme at level 3, ASET attests that its learning outcomes are at an equivalent level to a level 3 national qualification.
Assessment
After each lesson there will be a question paper, which needs to be completed and submitted to your personal tutor for marking. This method of continual assessment ensures that your personal tutor can consistently monitor your progress and provide you with assistance throughout the duration of the course.
