Institute of Counselling Reviews

Detailed information on theories and models but again I would have liked more practical help in a clinical practice setting.

Some of it was a bit dry - especially some of the longer units. We didnt have access to some of the course due to access limitations, but in general it was very good.

The materials were excellent. I printed all my course material and so files without the detailed images on each page would have been better for me.

Very educational and taught me an awful lot.

minor quibble, but the page numbering in the printed lessons was occasionally out of sync.

Course content was good

The course content was good and i enjoyed the topics covered.

The course content was enriching and provided me with relevant skills to learn to be a counsellor. The assignments and the self-assessment exercises provided opportunities to think through counselling practices and to role play them with a colleague; that was instructive.

I enjoyed this course but will admit to finding some of it a little too on the "church/pastoral" side for my liking. I am an atheist so some of the course material didn't sit well with me but I managed to discern what was required of me by using those particular lesson models.

I found the reference material well written and easy to understand. the content was well structured and sectioned enough to allow me to break down what was needed in the essay and the case study.
