PACFA has established a Specialist Training Accreditation program to support high standards in counselling and psychotherapy education, and to help students choose quality training courses to further their counselling or psychotherapy studies.
Specialist Training providers can apply to have counselling and psychotherapy education programs assessed and accredited by PACFA. The accreditation process involves, independent assessment of counselling and psychotherapy training programs that do not meet the PACFA Accredited Course requirements but still provide valuable training in areas of advanced practice in counselling and psychotherapy.
Please Note: Completing a Specialist Accreditation course does not provide a pathway to PACFA Membership or Registration. Trainees undertaking this specialist training who wish to be eligible for PACFA membership or registration must have already completed training in counselling or psychotherapy that meets the PACFA Registration Requirements
