COSCA Group Counselling Skills Course

The COSCA Group Counselling Skills Course offers participants the opportunity to build on their previous one-to-one counselling training by learning how to apply these skills effectively in a group setting.

This course explores the full life cycle of group work—from beginnings through middles to endings—a structure that will be familiar to those who have completed the COSCA Counselling Skills Certificate. Participants will gain both a theoretical foundation and practical skills in group facilitation, learning how to support and manage group dynamics in a range of contexts.

Delivered by experienced, COSCA-Accredited Trainers, the course leads to a professionally recognised qualification and provides a strong grounding in group counselling practice.
