Diploma of Counselling - on campus

This course provides students with the expert counselling and communication skills needed to help others in a variety of different settings. Students learn how to establish counselling relationships, know the right questions to ask, conduct interactions within ethical and legal frameworks, and recognise and respond to crisis situations.

Combined diploma/degrees: The Diploma of Counselling can be combined with other programs as listed below to attain the awards of Diploma of Counselling from TAFE Queensland and the relevant degree from the university. Students undertake initial study at TAFE Queensland and complete the degree at the relevant university. Duration, location, mode of study, semester intake, electives and specialisations may vary. All mandatory university admission and English language requirements must be met before university enrolment is finalised. For more information contact the relevant university. Note: TAFE Queensland students making transition to the degree may need to wait six months to start with the semester one university intake.

To apply for a combined diploma/degree, applicants must select the Diploma of Counselling for the relevant TAFE Queensland location on their application and nominate their preferred degree/university (one only). Applicants can list the stand alone diploma or the combined program but not both. Listing more than one is not needed because they have the same eligibility and ATAR/rank requirements.
