Students are required to demonstrate they have acquired both basic and advanced counselling skills. The unit introduces counselling skills relevant to specific work situations such as conflict resolution, working with difficult clients, and brief interventions strategies. Multicultural counselling will also be addressed. Students are required to demonstrate their ability to apply the counselling skills in a variety of simulated counselling situations.
