Counselling CPD Courses & Workshops

Counselling CPD (continuing professional development) is the ongoing training counsellors and psychotherapists complete each year to maintain their BACP, NCS or equivalent membership - most bodies ask for around 30 CPD hours annually. Our counselling CPD workshops are delivered in Birmingham and Devon, and each session runs for around 4 hours, giving you a full day of focused, practical CPD training without a lengthy time commitment.

​

Below is the full list of our CPD workshops, who each one is best suited to, and how many CPD hours you'll earn. Current dates are published on each workshop's own page - contact us if you don't see a date listed, and we'll let you know when the next one is scheduled.

How to Choose a CPD Course​

​​

  • Match it to your specialism - pick workshops that build on the client groups you already work with, or help you branch into a new area.

  • Check your CPD hours - most membership bodies require around 30 hours a year, so plan your workshops across the year rather than leaving them all to renewal time.

  • Consider your stage of career - some sessions suit newly qualified counsellors, others are aimed at experienced practitioners deepening a specialism.

  • Ask about free access - if you're on one of our Diploma courses, you may already have free CPD events included in your training.

What Our Customers Are Saying

"I thoroughly enjoyed my experience whilst on this course. Sian is an amazing tutor and has shown me a great level of support whilst conducting my studies. The course is very suitable for those who have a family as they are extremely understanding and 20% of the term consists of holidays which allows for plenty of time for your own needs. I have experienced a lot of personal growth and can definitely see how far I have come academically thanks to the amazing quality of teaching. There is a very broad time frame to complete studies which is great for anyone who has extra responsibilities. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is interested as it will genuinely change your perception on life."
