Assessment
This course is knowledge-based, however, it includes a practical aspect so that you can demonstrate your newly-found skills. To meet the assessment criteria, you will be required to interact with several case study scenarios and provide a development journal of learning that will you to track and reflect on the ways you have applied your counselling skills in your everyday life or social care setting. This is so your assessor can see how you apply your knowledge to different situations, which will, in turn, help you confidently practice your skills in the future.
