The Level 2 Award is an introductory course designed to provide learners with the core skills and knowledge required to be well on the way in the journey to becoming a qualified counsellor. It provides an overview of the fundamental skills of counselling alongside the theory that underpins the practice. Although learners will not be a qualified counsellor upon completing this course, the course provides an excellent foundation for those with limited experience in counselling settings.

​

The modules within this qualification are all mandatory and must be completed to achieve the award.

Course Information

At Base 51 Training Academy we tend to start most learners on a level 2 course as this acts a foundation for which to progress onto higher courses. Remember: Our higher courses require a much bigger commitment and learner's work will need to be much more detailed. Learners who have already achieved a level 2 qualification are eligible to start on a higher course.
