Diploma of Applied Psychology and Counselling - a NEW, one-year vocational training program now being offered on-campus (day or evening classes), and through distance learning.

• Updated Curriculum - The curriculum introduces the latest research, theories and counselling techniques from the disciplines of psychology and social work.
• Professional Competence - Students take part in interactive exercises, which simulate real counselling situations. This hands-on approach to learning prepares graduates to meet trends and changing job requirements for entry-level counsellors in community agencies and private practice settings.
• Self Awareness - The program stresses ethical decision making and personal growth as being essential components in the practice of professional counselling
• Distance Education Now Available - In addition to on-campus classes, students can now complete all or part of their course work through distance education. Students practice counselling skills in volunteer positions with community or private agencies. This applied learning concept allows each student to build a portfolio of job skills with practical relevance for future employers. The online student forum and chat line is a good source of discussion, encouragement, friendships and professional networking.
