SEG Level 2 Award Counselling Skills
What is the Course About?
It enhances and improves verbal and written communication skills, promotes personal growth, and provides basic industry knowledge to prepare learners to progress onto appropriate further qualifications. Learners will complete this qualification with a comprehensive and full understanding of the following:
• How to reflect on personal development and identify areas for future development
• What core counselling skills are, including how to establish a helping relationship, and knowing how to conclude a helping interaction
• The main theoretical approaches to counselling

What are my progression and career options?
Successful completion of the SEG Awards Level 2 Award in Counselling Skills will usually lead onto learners completing the SEG Awards Level 2 Certificate in Counselling Skills.
