Module Outline
By the end of the module students will have gained skills required to undertake Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) across different complexities and different service settings in an ethical and collaborative manner. 
The module runs alongside all modules following the Fundamentals of CBT course, across terms 1 and 2. 
Throughout the module, students will gain a detailed understanding and skills required to undertake Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for people with a range of mental health presentations in an ethical and collaborative manner. Sessions will include individual and small group excercises, modelling and rehearsal using case examples thus facilitating the grounding and consolidation of skills. Students will be encouraged to take part in practical and explorative exercises to start to reflect on their own CBT skill development, and how these CBT skills might be used to help them to deepen their practice  of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in an ethical and collaborative manner.
Students will also be required to undertake 70 hours of supervision from a BACP accredited therapist. Half of this supervison (35 hours) will be provided by the course, half will be provided by supervisors in the students' place of work. Staff will liaise with supervisors in the students place of work to ensure quality assurance and adherance to the requirements of the module.
