GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE RATIONAL EMOTIVE BEHAVIOUR (REBT) AND STRESS MANAGEMENT TRAINING PROGRAMME

The Centre has developed an integrated, modular programme of courses based on rational emotive behaviour, cognitive-behavioural and problem focused approaches and techniques that are suitable for a wide range of applications including stress management, stress counselling, psychotherapy, crisis and trauma counselling. The approaches to counselling, psychotherapy and stress management training on offer at the Centre is underpinned by published research. The modular programme is sufficiently flexible to allow students to design their own programme of training. Most modules i.e. primary or preliminary certificate courses, can be taken as individual workshops or put towards an advanced certificate or diploma programme. Within acceptable limits, students can study and attend courses at their own speed depending upon the time and the finances they have available. These training programmes can also be run for organisations who wish their staff to attend the same course. Contact the Director for further details.

IMPORTANT NOTICE -

Essential Reading Before Course Enrolment

Full course information is available in our brochure. It is strongly recommended that potential applicants initially read our brochure before applying for any course. Unless stated otherwise, all of the courses at the Centres are not opportunities to work out personal issues which may need the support of personal therapy but a commitment to self-disclosure in relation to course learning, skills training and personal awareness will be expected. Applicants applying to the Diploma courses in psychotherapy or counselling should not put undue pressure upon potential organisations to employ them just to satisfy the requirements of these courses and their own desire to obtain a therapeutic qualification. If the employing organisation will not allow taping of work with clients, does not offer suitable supervision, or the applicant is unable to finance appropriate supervision then we do not recommend applying to these higher level Diploma courses until the necessary criteria can be attained. Students must attend over 90% of an individual course to satisfy the attendance requirements. If this is not possible then students are advised to apply when they can meet the criteria. All course fees must be paid one month prior to the commencement of the course. Students attending courses are expected to switch off their mobile phones during lectures and workshops. Normal rules of confidentiality apply to all of the courses.

LEVELS

Level 1 courses/modules are introductory and previous experience is not expected of the topic covered. These courses are usually unsuitable for experienced practitioners. Although Level 2 courses are not basic, previous knowledge of the topic concerned is not a prerequisite. If not indicated in this brochure then the course is at Level 2. Level 3 and 4 courses/modules are advanced courses for which a previous level of knowledge and appropriate experience are expected. Most certificated courses involve written assignments (e.g. seen exam paper or essays) undertaken at home. If in doubt, please contact the Centre for clarification.

WHO ARE THE COURSES FOR?

Our courses are usually suitable for trainers, counsellors, psychologists, personnel staff, management consultants, health and caring professionals who wish to learn more about the particular topic. However, Level 3 and 4 courses demand more experience and knowledge of the particular topic and potential applicants need to confirm with the Centre whether they are choosing an appropriate course. At all times, read the full course details in the brochure available from the Centre.
