The CBT Masterclass.
'The CBT Masterclass' is a 3-day course from the Association for Psychological Therapies (APT), a leading provider of CBT training for professionals working in mental health and related areas in the UK and Ireland.
It is the only CBT Masterclass training that is APT-accredited and also gives you access to APT’s relevant downloadable resources for use post-course. The course is available for individuals or for whole teams and can be attended face-to-face or online. It can also be completed as part of the Extended Training in CBT course.
Executive Summary:
This is a course for people who have at least 6 months practice subsequent to receiving Level 3 APT-Accreditation (often much more). In lectures, the masterclass provides more depth on some of the topics in the Essentials course but is mainly focused on developing skill, based around the following components: listening to and making case presentations, watching video demos by others, role-play/real-play where you interview others and they interview you, and establishing a stable system for support and development for yourself in this area post course. The result is that you enhance your skill and technique, not just your knowledge. Successful completion also gains you APT's Level 4 accreditation in the subject.

1. Groups of professionals who see patients in 1:1 treatment settings, have a significant degree of clinical skill, and wish to become more proficient.
