Advanced Diploma Tutors

We are seeking to fill two new posts within our Level 5 Advanced Diploma in Counselling (accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy):

Senior Tutor: £10,704 pa   Training day – Thursdays (term time)

Course Tutor: £10,143 pa   Training day – Thursdays (term time)

Both roles will involve teaching Network’s Core Self model to Advanced Diploma students.  The Senior Tutor role will have an oversight role for all aspects of the course working closely with the Advanced Course Leader and the Course Tutor.

The Core-Self model is an integrative person-centred model and seeks to draw together the person-centred and the spiritual in a meaningful synthesis and in this respect might best be described as a person-centred psychospiritual model.

We are looking for qualified counsellors with at least an HE/NQF Level 5 Diploma in Counselling, having some previous experience of working as a counselling trainer,  ideally having experience and/or a qualification in counselling supervision or prepared to undertake Supervision training and be accredited with the BACP, NCS or other relevant professional body (or working towards accreditation).
