Gain a qualification to effectively support individuals from all walks of life

According to Job and Skills Australia, annual employment growth in counselling is strong. If you seek meaningful work and flexibility in your career, counselling offers the chance to make a lasting impact on various clients in a range of settings.

Counsellors help people with relationship, social, and emotional challenges. They work with people to identify complex issues and use therapies and other talking methods to support them.

The Diploma of Counselling provides you with real-world skills to excel in the role. With hybrid study modes, the course combines theory with skills-based practical experience.

You'll learn to use proven counselling techniques, along with communication, micro-counselling, and interviewing skills. At this level, you'll be able to work within established organisations, with guidance and support, rather than practising independently.
