Throughout the degree, there are multiple rich opportunities to learn and refine practical counseling skills. These skills will be employed in a real-world context when students begin supervised client work with adults in their second year of study. The degree program offers students the opportunity to engage with a contemporary curriculum, informed by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) Guidelines for Stage 3 Core Practitioner Training (2022), the BACP Gold book criteria for the accreditation of training courses (2021), and the subject benchmarks for Counselling and Psychotherapy (QAA, 2022).
As the programme aligns with the BACP requirements, students can apply for BACP membership upon successful completion. Such professional membership is an essential aspect of ethical practice. Graduates may also apply to sit the BACP’s Certificate of Proficiency test, allowing them to join the BACP register, a public record of counselors who meet the BACP quality standards. This level of BACP membership is often listed as a pre-requisite for employment as a counselor in critical organizations such as the NHS, educational establishments, and third-sector providers of counseling services. Students are also encouraged to apply for student BACP membership while on this course.
You will generally need 96-112 UCAS tariff points (from a maximum of four Advanced Level qualifications). We welcome a range of capabilities that meet this requirement, such as A/AS Levels, BTEC, Access Courses, International Baccalaureate (IB), Cambridge Pre-U, Extended Project, etc
