Description:
An introductory course giving the biblical foundation and basic skills for helping others to move forward in their lives.

Many people today are struggling with personal issues in their lives that need the help of others to deal with them. The exciting thing is that people can be helped to move forward and to discover the freedom to grow into all that God desires for them to be. If you have a heart to help those who struggle but are wondering how, then this foundation course is an ideal next step for you.

This exciting 5-day course is designed to give you a foundation for helping others on which you can build throughout the rest of your life. As with all our training, you will be helped to reflect on your own life in the light of the biblical model presented before using the principles to help others. This approach has transformed the lives of thousands who have come on our courses.

The course is equivalent to ACC Level 1. It is desired for those wanting to test their calling before embarking on more intensive training in either pastoral care or counselling, pastors, small group leaders, those in the caring professions, those who would find it helpful within their employment and many others.

**The other two dates are: 8th-12th August, 14th-18th November
