"With AIPC, its not just about studying, it's about what's beyond that. "There's so much emphasis on practical learning. It does actually prepare you for the job itself. It is flexible. You can mould it to suit your life.

"Counselling is not just a career but a calling because it's powerful, meaningful and genuine work. Counsellors walk beside their clients through challenges but they are also there for the quiet breakthroughs, it's very rewarding.

I was in various industries beforehand– graphic design, web design, ecommerce. Then I had two kids and realised I needed a change. I took a really big leap and decided to commit to the Diploma of Counselling and it was the best decision I've ever made. The freedom to study at my own pace. The phone support was really good and the assessors were amazing. They really set you up to succeed."

"The part of the course I enjoyed the most was the practical side. It really was superb. It was where I learnt how to become a counsellor, not just learning about what a counsellor does."

"Counselling is not just a career but a calling because it's powerful, meaningful and genuine work. Counsellors walk beside their clients through challenges but they are also there for the quiet breakthroughs, it's very rewarding."

"As a counsellor, I want to work towards people feeling happier and better and more positive… I’m really happy to continue on this journey, helping as many individuals as possible."

"One of the aspects I loved most about the course was how flexible it was. I could do the modules anywhere at any time."
