Course Accreditation
Accreditation of CBT Training Courses
Courses offering training in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) can apply to the BABCP for Accreditation.
They can be accredited as a course that provides some, or all, of the training necessary to contribute towards an individual becoming BABCP accredited as a CBT therapist.
Courses can apply for Accreditation at two different levels:
1. Level 1
The course meets BABCP's quality of training criteria. The course has a clear statement of the amount of CBT training provided which will count towards an individual's accreditation as an individual CBT practitioner.
2. Level 2
The course provides all the necessary training so that on graduation from Level 2 courses, individuals will have received the training required to fulfil the BABCP's Minimum Training Standards.
However, graduates will also have to meet additional criteria to gain individual practitioner accreditation. For example, they will need to demonstrate that they are continuing to use CBT, have appropriate supervision, engage in appropriate CBT and adhere to BABCP guidelines for good practice.
