EBPT practitioners have core clinical skills and theoretical knowledge with a specialism in parenting training interventions for behavioural difficulties including conduct disorder for three to ten year olds. They work with both children and their parents using NICE recommended evidence based individual and group approaches.
Evidence based parent training interventions are based on cognitive social learning theory and also draw on attachment theory, the parent-child relationship and parenting styles. Training in assessing and understanding behavioural difficulties in children, involving parents/carers in interventions, evidence-based parent group techniques and evidence-based individual parent training methods is supported by the CYP IAPT (Children and Young Peoples Improving Access to Psychological Therapy) programme.
Stages of EBPT Accreditation
We are pleased to announce that we have now launched our accreditation for EBPT practitioners.
To be eligible for accreditation, you must have completed a BABCP accredited CYP IAPT Parent Training For Conduct Disorder course. This means you will have met all the EBPT Minimum Training Standards required for Accreditation with BABCP.
Provisional EBPT Accreditation - This is the first Stage. Provisional accreditation lasts for 12-24 months.
Full EBPT Accreditation - Is the second stage. You should apply 12-24 months after receiving your Provisional award.
EBPT Reaccreditation - One year after receiving your Full EBPT Accreditation, you will need to submit a Declaration of Reaccreditation. You will be asked to make this declaration each year on the anniversary of your Full EBPT award. This is supported with an audit.

Supervisor's Report
This must be completed by your current EBPT clinical supervisor. This document should be completed and signed within one month prior to your application submission. If you have been supervised by your current supervisor for less than six months, your previous supervisor should also provide a report.
You are expected to give evidence of five EBPT CPD activities per year, drawn from across the range of learning and development activities. These will have been completed in the 12-24 months since you were awarded Provisional Accreditation. One of these may be a non-EBPT specific activity provided that you can justify on your Reflective Statement how it is appropriate to your practice.
Within these five activities, you are required to include at least six hours of EBPT skills workshop(s) per year and complete a Reflective Statement for each of these. This can be one workshop of six hours, or a number of shorter ones that total six hours, e.g. 2 x three hour workshops. Please consult the guidance of suitable CPD Activities below.
You must provide your supervision log book for the 12-24 months since you were awarded Provisional Accreditation. Please follow carefully the guidance on how to complete your log book below.
