Exploring Professional Practice Groups
Our series of evening professional practice groups give us the opportunity to have some social time together and discuss specific topics we hope will be of interest to you. We also welcome any suggestions for topics you would like to see on our programme in future.
These groups run bi-monthly on a Monday between 6.00pm and 8.30pm, and we are pleased to be able to offer these for free to Network counsellors, students and supervisors, and to others for a small fee of £10 per session. A certificate for 2 hours CPD will be available for each session attended.
