`This clear and systematic book is intended to offer practical guidelines on planning, implementing and evaluating counsellor training programmes... a very focused and unusually practical reflection by two experienced trainers on the general tasks facing those who train counsellors... affords many useful pointers' - Clinical Psychology Forum

`The authors' expertise shows... there is much here to stimulate reflection and improve practice' - International Review of PsychiatryAssessing how counselling training may be analyzed, systematized, reconsidered and improved, this book raises the central issues which face those with an interest in the design or improvement of training courses and puts forward ideas about how such courses can be better organized, how training methods can be made more effective and how counselling skills can be more appropriately taught.

The book also covers areas such as trainers' self-care, working relationships, interpersonal dynamics and trainees' supervised work with clients. It does not disguise the problems involved in starting or running a training course, but provides encouraging advice, supported by case studies and examples, to show how these difficulties can be successfully overcome.
