Basic Counselling Skills - Part 2

The second part of the Basic Counselling Skills online course aims to build on the ideas and strategies presented in the first section in terms of having helpful, effective conversations.

Offered by CRANAplus Bush Sup­port Ser­vices, this course will fur­ther devel­op the core skills of con­gru­ence, empa­thy and pos­i­tive regard as they apply to con­ver­sa­tions cen­tring on more dif­fi­cult themes. Fol­low­ing on from Part 1, Part 2 of this course con­tin­ues to pro­mote the impor­tance of self-reflec­tion and it con­tin­ues to encour­age par­tic­i­pants to prac­tise the iden­ti­fied skills in every­day life.

Who is this course for?

Health prac­ti­tion­ers work­ing in rur­al and remote set­tings who deal with com­mon per­son­al and rela­tion­ship issues with oth­er staff mem­bers, their patients and clients. It is an intro­duc­to­ry course and is NOT designed to pro­vide pro­fes­sion­al coun­selling training.

This course will be help­ful for health pro­fes­sion­als who recog­nise that some­times what is required in a help­ful rela­tion­ship is beyond advice giv­ing. It is use­ful for those who wish to encour­age self-reliance and empow­er the peo­ple they are deal­ing with. The course is for health pro­fes­sion­als who wish to fur­ther their inter­per­son­al skills in a way that high­lights the val­ue of and respect to others.

Require­ments

  • You will need reg­u­lar access to a com­put­er with an inter­net connection.
  • A min­i­mum of 20 hours to com­plete course read­ing and assess­ment tasks.
