Enhance your professional development with the Level 3 Diploma in Counselling Skills. Whether you're keen to become a qualified professional counsellor or you wish to gain counselling skills as part of your current profession (for example teaching or nursing), this 30-week programme is for you. As you develop your counselling skills, you will cover areas such as theoretical approaches, working ethically, diversity and personal development. This qualification may aid progression to accredited counsellor status but it is not a licence to practise counselling. Should you wish to follow that route, upon successful completion, you should consider progressing to the Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling.
