Counselling plays a critical role in all aspects of society. Counsellors are involved in the delivery of health, community and corporate services to a diverse population with complex needs and issues. The College offers programs that lead to careers in professional counselling. Equally important, it provides training opportunities for those who wish to incorporate counselling approaches into their personal and professional lives.

After completing my PhD, I started teaching and gradually drifted into the psychology and counselling fields, where I've now had over 20 years of experience. ACAP has given me the opportunity to study the theory of what I'm practising, and that too from thousands of kilometres away. This is giving me an enriching perspective and context to my work and life. I find ACAP's faculty and staff very professional, responsive and always encouraging.
