Accreditation: This course is recognised by the Counsellors’ and Psychotherapists’ Association of Victoria (CAPAV) and meets their standards for membership.

Assessment: Students will be continually assessed via classroom activities, videotaped practice sessions and written assignments.

There are no written examinations and there is no grading.

Course Structure: The course is four 20-week semesters over at least two years, with a minimum of 300 classroom hours. The emphasis is on practical skills, with about 20 per cent theory and 80 percent practise. Each semester consists of weekly classes (3 hours each) plus 2 full-day workshops.
