You can attend specific modules according to your individual professional needs and working environment. Some modules hone skills and knowledge in a specific area (e.g. older people, trauma etc) and others cover a diverse range of disorders in less detail. Depending on the route and modules chosen, these programmes may or may not include clinical components. Each module holds a University credit evaluation, and on successful completion these credits can be accumulated towards a University of Reading qualification in Professional Development in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (non-clinical).
Applications are made direct to the CWI. To apply, please fill out the Certificate and Diploma Application Form found on the PGCert page on the CWI website.
The PGCert can be done taking flexible modules throughout the year with the Flexible Professional Development Modules.
