Counsellors do more than offer a new perspective. Their care can help save homes, relationships and lives.
Trained counsellors are needed now more than ever. In fact, the government’s JobOutlook website estimates around 22,000 jobs in counselling will open up over the next five years. It’s also a profession that earns around 20% above the national average.
The training in our counselling Course Bundle won’t just set you up with proven ways to help people through tough times. It will also improve your communication, problem-solving, and soft skills like time management and teamwork. It’s perfect for healthcare workers, teachers, HR staff, and all others who find themselves in a caring capacity. As a student, you can expect to receive career-boosting credentials and interpersonal benefits you can carry far into the future.

They’re perfect for people with busy lives and families who want to better themselves while unlocking better opportunities.
