In-House & Local Group Training

The Academy of Play and Child Psychotherapy (APAC) provides in-house play therapy training on an organisation's site or at a convenient location for a group.

The advantages are:

Fully accredited programmes (by PTUK, PTI) using proven course content delivered by experts in their field
Training at a convenient place and time - especially for those who prefer weekdays
Only local travel - less distance, time and cost
Less time away from home
Affinity with other group members
Training may be more closely aligned with organisation's needs focusing on the skills required for safe and effective practice, without the pressure of formal academic work
Cost benefits from economies of scale and use of existing facilities

In-house Play Therapy Training for Organisations

APAC's course material is available for in-house training programmes. These may range from half day introductory workshops to full Certificate and Diploma courses. The course content is tailored to the learning objectives of the organisation and integrated with other learning methods.

Normally a group of 8 - 12 is optimum for cost and effectiveness. However we have presented a half day workshop to over 40 delegates and run a 5-day intensive training course in therapeutic play skills for 80 participants. Examples are:

LEA Behaviour Service	A series of introductory workshops followed by a one-year, part time Certificate in Therapeutic Play Skills for Educational Psychologists and teaching staff.
Local Counselling Services	One day introductory workshops - using therapeutic play skills to work with children and families.
Education Authority	Six month Certificate programme, over six weekends, for primary and nursery school teachers.

Local Group Training

APAC's course material is also available for local group training programmes. These may range from half day introductory workshops to full Certificate and Diploma courses. The training may be focussed on any special requirements that the group may have. A group may be made up of an Organiser and independent individuals or members of organisations.

A group of 8 - 12 is optimum for cost and effectiveness for the Certificate and Diploma programmes.
