IACP Register of Recognised Professional Counselling Training Courses

Introduction

(i) For the purposes of Accreditation with the Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy it is necessary to have completed a “core course”. For a definition of a ‘core course’ please refer to “Information Sheet 2: How do I Become Accredited With IACP ?”

 

What Is A Recognised Course?

(i) The IACP has developed a set of criteria for courses (available from IACP) and these criteria have been compiled in consultation with the European Association for Counselling.
(ii) Course recognition is a lengthy process, involving ongoing course inspections, assessments of organisation, content, supervision of students, qualifications of staff, and actual observation over a period of time. The Association continues to invite training courses, who have not applied to the scheme, to apply for course recognition by IACP under these criteria.
(iii) The successful completion of any course does not in itself guarantee accreditation, as it is only one factor of any individual application.
(iv) Courses which have been refused recognition by IACP, or which do not satisfy IACP criteria are unlikely to be acceptable for individual accreditation purposes.
