The SEG Awards ABC Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling is concerned with the training of counsellors to a professional level of competency. Learners will further develop the knowledge, skills and self-development gained from their Level 3 experience. It is required that learners will be involved in placement with rigorous and qualified casework supervision. This should enable an interchange of experiences between the placement and the classroom work on a constant basis.
Applicants must have successfully completed a full L3 Counselling qualification either from NCFE, Skills and Education Group Awards or equivalent. The certificate must be seen at interview.
