The aim of this course is to enable students to develop an understanding of the core counselling process, and to acquire the fundamental counselling skills that are essential for any counselling or psychotherapy practice. In addition, students will be encouraged to reflect on their own personal values and attributes that might enhance or hinder the counselling process.

During the seminar, didactic material and experiential learning are integrated to introduce theoretical and practical concepts and illustrate their use. Each session will provide an interactive environment to encourage student engagement as they apply these concepts and clarify understanding. Small group discussions, role play, and personal reflection will be undertaken. A written paper provides an opportunity for further exploration of key concepts, wider reading and synthesis of concepts.

Students will be encouraged to see the weekly practice sessions as an ‘experimental laboratory’ where they can try out new behaviours, be relieved of the ‘pressure to be perfect’, be supported by staff and peers, and offer support to fellow students in learning. All students are asked to work in practice groups of 3 to 4 members to apply the materials covered in lectures. The skills taught will be practised in the sequence outlined in the counselling process: attending, observing, listening, and responding. Students will undertake three different roles as they learn these skills. These are the roles of ‘student-counsellor’, ‘student-client’, and ‘observer’. Detailed information will be provided to students at the commencement of the course.

The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.
The course comprises 3 workshop face to face sessions per week. Sessions will be seminar/workshop format, with a mixture of lectures and interactive exercises, and it is compulsory for all students to attend. Essential readings or on-line video material will be recommended.

• Face to workshops: 3 hours / week
• Core/background readings: 5 hours / week
• Preparation of assignments: 4 hours / week

Quizzes (Weighting 15%)
During weeks 2-6, students will be required to complete 5 weekly quizzes to assess foundational knowledge of the Basic Listening Sequence skills. These quizzes will be based on the assigned readings for each corresponding week. 

Basic Listening Skills Practical Feedback (Formative)
During weeks 2-6, students will develop a series of scaffolded foundational counselling skills. Tutorial class time is dedicated to practicing these skills in triads, during which each student is observed and provided with immediate feedback for one of these sessions by a staff member.

Basic Listening Skills Practical Assessment & Evaluation (Weighting 30%)
Students are to complete a video/digital recording demonstrating the basic listening sequence of skills for 12-15 minutes with a fellow student-client presenting a genuine counselling issue. The session will demonstrate each of the basic listening skills within stage 1 & 2 of the 5 Stage Model.

Practical Skills Assessment (Weighting 45%)
In weeks 12 or 13 you are required to conduct a counselling session with one of your fellow students as your 'client'. This will be a live demonstration of the skills learnt throughout this course with your assessor/s present. Your session will take 15-18 minutes demonstrating appropriate therapist attributes, skills, and effective use of the 5 Stage Model.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A HURDLE ASSIGNMENT, which means you are required to achieve a 50% pass mark in this assignment to pass the course overall.

Participation (10%)
Students will attend and engage in workshop activities, demonstrating respectful engagement and cooperation with their lecturers and fellow students, and completion of practice-based learning tasks.

Submission of Assignments

Assignments will be submitted via MyUni.

Extensions
All extensions for assignments must be requested, at the latest, by the last working day before the due date of submission.   Extensions will generally be granted only on medical or genuine compassionate grounds. Supporting documentation must be  provided at the time a student requests an extension. Without documentation, extensions will not be granted. Late requests for  extension will neither be accepted nor acknowledged.

Only the Course Co-ordinator(s) may grant extensions.

Supporting documentation will be required when requesting an extension. Examples of documents that are acceptable include: a  medical certificate that specifies dates of incapacity, a police report (in the case of lost computers, car & household theft etc.), a  letter from a Student Counsellor, Education and Welfare Officer (EWO) or Disability Liaison Officer that provides an assessment of  compassionate circumstances, or a letter from an independent external counsellor or appropriate professional able to verify the  student’s situation.  The length of any extension granted will take into account the period and severity of any incapacity or impact 
on the student.  Extensions of more than 10 days will not be granted except in exceptional circumstances.

Late submission
Marks will be deducted when assignments for which no extension has been granted are handed in late.

All assignments, including those handed in late, will be assessed on their merits. In the case of late assignments where no  extension has been granted, 5 percentage points of the total marks possible per day will be deducted. If an assignment that is 2  days late is awarded 65% on its merits, the mark will then be reduced by 10% (5% per day for 2 days) to 55%. If that same  assignment is 4 days late, the mark will be reduced by 20% (5% per day for 4 days) to 45%, and so on.
 
The School of Public Health reserves the right to refuse to accept an assignment that is more than 7 days late.

Assignments submitted after the due date may not be graded in time to be returned on the listed return dates.

Students submitting examinable written work who request (and receive) an extension that takes them beyond the examination  period are advised that there is no guarantee that their grades will be processed in time to meet usual University deadlines.
 
Resubmission
If a student is dissatisfied with an assessment grade they should follow the Student Grievance Resolution Process 
</student/grievance/process/>. Students who are not satisfied with a particular assessment result should raise their concerns with Course Co-ordinator(s) in the first instance. This must be done within 10 business days of the date of notification of the result. Resubmission of any assignment is subject to the agreement of the Course Co-ordinator(s) and will only be permitted for the most compelling of reasons.
