Certificate in Counselling Skills

Welcome to this Level 2 Certificate in Counselling Skills.

We hope you find all of the information contained in this resource pack interesting
and informative.

The content in this workbook and the further study you will carry out on your own
should not only help you pass your assessments with ease, but also help you
to improve your critical thinking and personal judgement regarding the topics in
question. This will stand you in good stead for applying this knowledge throughout
your personal and/or professional life.

Unit 1: Using counselling skills

Unit 2: Introduction to counselling skills theories

This learning resource and the assessment questions are compatible with the TQUK
qualification. (A complete list of the learning outcomes can be found on the last page
of this resource.)

As you start to read through each page you will be able to make notes and comments
on things you have learnt or may want to revisit at a later stage.

At the end of each unit, you will be asked to go to your assessments and answer the
relevant questions. Once you have answered the questions, go to the next unit and
continue studying until all of the assessments have been completed.

Please make sure that you set aside enough time to read each section carefully,
making notes and completing all of the activities. This will allow you to gain a
better understanding of the subject content and will help you to answer all of the
assessment questions accurately.

Good luck with your study. Now let’s begin!
