Questions and answers
I am a counsellor , you have stated, taking the course i will not qualify as an art therapist, who is the awarding body ? And accreditation by?
Answer:Hi Debbie. That's correct. Training to become an art therapist can take upwards of seven years and will vary considerably depending on where you are in the world. There really is no set route as there are so many different factors to take into consideration, such as existing qualifications, experience etc. What I advise students to do, is to have a look online at universities that might be offering courses of this nature and speak to them directly as they will be able to confirm for you w
This was helpful.Hi, beside the price shown on the page, do I have to pay for any extra cost, for example, adminstration cost and if Yes, how much is it? Thank you.
Answer:The only additional cost is if you wish to go for the accreditation / diploma process. As stated in the course description already, this is an additional 9.99. Hope that helps RLT
