FAQs
......................................................................

Does this training entitle me to practise CBT?
 
It is your professional qualification that entitles you to see clients/patients and part of your professional responsibility is to keep up to date with relevant interventions such as CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, etc. and that is where the APT modules come in. Since 1983 APT has been probably the major supplier of CBT training like this in the UK.

......................................................................

Is the course accredited?
 
If you want to be “an accredited CB Therapist” then you need a much longer course than the ones here or any comparable ones. APT courses are designed for people who already have a professional qualification that entitles them to work with clients/patients (e.g. psychiatric nurse, social worker, occupational therapist, psychologist, psychiatrist). APT is probably the largest and longest established provider of CBT training to the NHS and other healthcare providers in the UK.

How long will it take me to complete an online course?
 
This varies from person-to-person, depending on how much they want to
get out of the course - for example, it has taken some people who are already familiar with CBT only 3-4 hours to complete the CBT: Key Knowledge and Skill course,
whilst others have taken four or five times
as long, re-watching videos and going back over material until they are sure they understand it.

Do I get a certificate after completion?

Once I have successfully completed the course, am I still able to access the content?
  
Yes, if there is something you would like
to go back to, you are able to re-access
the course.

......................................................................

Am I eligible to undertake these courses?
  
Yes, there is no reason why you shouldn’t undertake any of our courses; they are designed to be as accessible and ‘transparent’ as possible. Bear in mind though that you will only be able to use
the content with clients/patients if you
have a professional qualification, e.g. psychiatric nurse, social worker, occupational therapist, psychologist, psychiatrist. It is your professional qualification that entitles you to work with clients/patients, not a CBT qualification.

Why can't I print-off my certificate?
  
If you have not reached the pass mark of 85% or above you will need to redo the module - you also need to view every page of the online module to enable the system to generate a certificate.
