From a very well respected provider of CBT training
...........................................................................................................................................................................
 
APT has been providing training in CBT since 1983, just four years after Beck et al wrote their groundbreaking book. Unsurprisingly, therefore, CBT training from APT has acquired a very high reputation. And when you say you have undertaken training in CBT, you want to be able to say that it is from a credible source.

Introductory and specialist online CBT modules
...........................................................................................................................................................................

Because of our comprehensive range of modules, you can tailor your online CBT training to cover just what you want. If you are relatively new to CBT, or just have a little knowledge about it, then clearly you will want to undertake the ‘Key Knowledge and Skills’ course. After that you can tailor your training just as you want, and at the pace you want. You may even access the training just when you need it; for example, the next time you are referred a case of panic disorder may be the time you wish to up-rate your knowledge of CBT techniques to conquer it. And the same applies to the other courses too.

Enjoyable and Interesting to do
...........................................................................................................................................................................

The great thing about web based learning is that you can do it at your own time, at your own pace and you can tailor it just as you wish. Up until now the drawback has been that it can be tedious! We have tackled this head on and are sure we have overcome transformed it. Not only are these modules ‘not tedious’ they are thoroughly enjoyable and interesting, we believe. We have targeted this as a goal and are very happy with the result.

Lots of interesting and relevant content
...........................................................................................................................................................................

For you to enjoy working through a course it has to be interesting, and that is why we have made all of our courses that way. On the other hand you also want it to be relevant. For example, when you get to the end of the course on OCD you want to be positively looking forward to the next case of OCD you see – it needs to be that relevant. That is why interest and relevance are the two key factors that we target, and we believe you will be pleased with the result.

Videos of therapy sessions
...........................................................................................................................................................................

You can learn a lot about therapy by reading and by doing exercises on it, but there is really no substitute for watching somebody else. This burns an indelible image onto the brain and so makes it very easy to copy good technique and good strategy. That is why most of the modules contain video segments and, in some cases, full video sessions. And we don’t show any ‘wrong way - right way’ videos, so you never see any images of what not to do!

Forms to print off and use
...........................................................................................................................................................................

One of the great things in CBT is that patients have appealing forms to record things on or work things with out. Where these are required – or even where they would be a nice adjunct – the course provides them in a format that you can use as many times as you want, for your own patients.

Interactive quizzes
...........................................................................................................................................................................

It is enjoyable to work through interesting and relevant content, but it is also important and reassuring to know that you have learned - and can remember - new material! This is why we have extensive quizzes on the courses, sometimes part way through the course (if the course is a long one) and sometimes just at the end. Some people like to go to the quiz first of all, just to check what they do and don’t know. Others like to work through the course and complete the quiz where it is scheduled. Either way is fine, you can do whatever you want. The only thing the software won’t allow is for you to go backwards and forwards from course contents to the quiz and fill it in that way!

Printable certificate if successful in the quiz
...........................................................................................................................................................................

The courses provide excellent information and demonstrations of very important techniques in key areas of concern in Mental Health. So not only are they interesting and relevant, they also leave you in a much more knowledgeable position than when you started. You may wish to demonstrate this knowledge and skill to others, and this is why we provide you with a printable certificate, so long as you reach the pass mark in the quiz. Others simply like to have it for their own benefit. In either case, it is there for you, to show what you have achieved.
