You can find out more about these organisations at their respective websites. Please use the buttons to the left to see the counselling training courses CSCT offer written to the specification of each awarding body.

The academic year 2002-2003 saw the introduction of the National Qualifications Framework (NQF). All new Vocationally Related Qualifications now meet standard criteria for assessment and learning outcomes - and all are matched to specified levels on the NQF, ie Level 2 (introductory and intermediate), and Level 3. What this means is that we offer similar courses at each level from different awarding bodies, although you will notice that course length and assessment requirements can vary significantly between one organisation and the other. Your choice of awarding body for will depend on personal preference and the availability in your region.
