The counselling courses are skills based and provide opportunities, for graduates and people working in counselling roles, to gain a qualification in counselling, as well as an understanding of the ethical, legal and professional issues of the practice of counselling.
Counselling graduates work in a wide range of settings including relationship counselling organisations, secondary and postsecondary education, community welfare centres, drug and alcohol agencies, church agencies, and private practice. Other graduates utilise their knowledge and skills in counselling in their existing employment.
From 2007, counselling has been restructured, and will be taught through the School of Psychology. All students currently enrolled in the counselling courses will be taught out through the School of Education, and under that structure.
The amended structure has synergies with Rehabilitation Counselling.
