This Level 3 Diploma course is designed to follow on from, and compliment the basic or introductory counselling course. Reappraisal of basic counselling skills and core knowledge will be covered, together with a detailed examination of the five approaches or theories of counselling.
Specific attention will be given to psychodynamic, cognitive behavioural and person-centred approaches, which will give students a fuller working knowledge and understanding of advanced counselling skills. In specialist counselling fields, these advanced skills are necessary in order to be able to recognise and deal with the complex range of client needs, together with being able to understand the origins of these particular emotions and possible physiological factors.
This online counselling course focuses on the integrated method of child counselling with significant reference to using narrative and imagery techniques. For adolescents who are struggling with the transition to adulthood, special counselling skills and approaches are required, together with proactive and creative strategies. In addition to the counselling approaches, various working models and theories specific to this field will be explored as well as behavioural, psychosocial strategies and reflective practice.

Career Profile - Youth Worker
Career Profile
Youth workers guide and support young people in their personal, social and educational development to help them reach their full potential
As a youth worker, you’ll set, organise and run community programmes aimed at young people aged between 11 and 25. Through these programmes, you’ll help them to explore and understand their ideas, values and beliefs, building their confidence and life skills so that they can make a successful transition to adulthood.
You’ll work in a variety of settings, such as:
* colleges
* faith-based groups
* schools
* youth centres.
You may also deliver targeted street work to engage with high-risk young people.
Youth work relies on voluntary engagement with young people, so you’ll need to build relationships based on trust in order to support and empower them.
Responsibilities
As a Youth Worker, you’ll need to:
* assess the needs of young people to correctly plan and deliver programmes related to areas such as health, fitness, smoking, drugs, gangs, violence, relationships and bullying
* set up and run arts-based activities, community/environmental projects, residential activities, outdoor education and sporting activities
* develop a relationship with young people based on respect and trust, ensuring they have a safe place to develop their identity and place in society
* establish boundaries and challenge inappropriate behaviour
* support young people in different settings, including outreach work
* mentor, coach and support individuals, encouraging greater social inclusion
* set targets for progression and regularly monitor and review the quality of the local youth work provision
* work in partnership with families and other key people in the young person’s life, as well as with professionals from other organisations involved with young people such as social care, health, police, education, youth offending teams and local authorities, in order to build a strong support network
* attend and contribute to multi-agency meetings, bringing together practitioners from different sectors as part of a ‘team around the family’ (TAF) approach
* attend regular training and development opportunities to maintain an up-to-date knowledge of safeguarding, health and safety, and local policy developments
* recruit, train and manage staff, including volunteers
* undertake administrative tasks, maintain effective recording systems and respond to queries
* work with parents and community groups to win support for improved provision and act as an advocate for young people’s interests
* identify and pursue sources of funding for projects to improve services and/or resources for young people
* draw up business plans, manage budgets, write reports and make formal presentations to funding bodies.
Salary
* Youth support workers (those who are not fully qualified professional youth workers) can expect to earn between £19,308 and £28,787.
* Salaries rise incrementally for experienced professional youth workers with a recommended range of £25,313 to £42,718.
* Salaries for local authority youth service managers vary according to the size of the authority and responsibility of the post but are usually in excess of £40,000.
London area allowances are available.
Income data from the Joint Negotiating Committee (JNC) for Youth and Community Workers. Figures are intended as a guide only.
Working Hours
Working hours are usually around 37 hours per week. You may need to work some evenings and weekends.
Many positions depend on the availability of funding and are temporary or fixed term.
What to expect
* Youth work services are largely dependent on government funding, which can make them vulnerable if cuts are made.
* Youth work positions are subject to an enhanced criminal record disclosure by the Disclosure and Barring Service in England and Wales, and Protecting Vulnerable Groups Scheme (PVG) in Scotland (run by Disclosure Scotland). Northern Ireland is covered by Access Northern Ireland (AccessNI). However, having a record does not mean you will necessarily be disqualified from being a youth worker.
* The work is demanding and may be stressful, especially if you work with high-risk and vulnerable young people, but it can also be rewarding.
* Travel during the working day can be frequent as you’ll need to visit locations where activities take place and for attending meetings with other agencies. Overnight absence from home is unusual, although you may be involved in residential activities and exchanges or group visits abroad.
Skills
You’ll need to have:
* a strong commitment to young people and an understanding of the factors affecting their lives
* the ability to provide reliable support to young people and act with integrity in times of stress
* excellent interpersonal skills, with the ability to establish and maintain good relationships with young people
* patience, tolerance and flexibility
* a sense of adventure and a willingness to try new things
* formal communication skills for presentations, report writing and funding applications
* the ability to treat young people’s concerns with respect, tact and sensitivity, while being aware of the limits that are required by confidentiality and the boundaries that govern the youth/youth worker relationship
* a great deal of resilience
* a second language – while not essential, this can be useful if you intend to work with a relevant ethnic group
* an interest in, or talent for, sport or performing arts – not essential but this can be helpful.
Career prospects
As you gain more experience as a youth worker, you may take on a more specialist role. For example, working in an area such as mental health or gang prevention, or working with specific vulnerable groups.
Although no formal qualification is required for entry into youth work management, employers usually expect several years’ experience as a full-time youth worker, including experience of leading a team of staff. They may also look for a specialist area.
There is no defined progression structure above a youth worker role, but more common titles denoting additional responsibilities include senior youth worker, youth work manager and youth work project coordinator. Relocation may be necessary to secure promotion due to the small number of senior, principal area youth worker or development officer posts.
One future possibility is to use your experience to move into related jobs such as:
* community education
* outdoor education
* social work
* teaching advice work
* training

Grading & How it Works
The UK has a unique higher education grading system. Its most unique feature compared to traditional grading systems is that it aims to be more specific in describing students’ academic achievement.
This type of assessment method is highly valued because it offers many advantages. Most importantly it highlights your academic strengths and specific skills, therefore, it helps employers gain a better understanding of your true potential.
Since it is proved to be such an efficient tool to assess students’ performance, many foreign countries like Canada, Australia and India are using the same grading system on some occasions with small changes to fit into their own local educational context.
We use a letter grade scale from A to F to indicate the students’ academic performance. If you get an A it means you have shown outstanding knowledge whereas if you get an F it means your score is not sufficient to pass the exam.
