Description
Counselling is essentially a lively, human and personal experience between two people. Therefore, it is a process which requires commitment of time and effort from both parties. The aim is for the counsellor to help the client find their own answers and to become more in charge of their lives rather than less so; to be able to live their own life rather than be lived by it.
This course covers topics such as
- Vocabulary of counseling
- Listening skills
- Counseling relationships
- Motivation skills
- Decision making
- Grief & bereavement
- Stress, anxiety & depression
- Restoring self esteem
- Eliciting self motivation
Outcomes
On completion of your course, you will receive two qualifications:
Counseling Skills Diploma
Counseling Skills Diploma issued by Stonebridge Associated Colleges, entitling you to use the letters SAC Dip after your name.
ASET Level 2 Counselling Skills Award
This Course leads to an ASET Level 2 Award Certificate for successful learners. That means that it is independantly accredited at a level of learning equivalent to level 2 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 2, ASET attests that its learning outcomes are at an equivalent level to a level 2 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.
