Stress Counselling in the Workplace Course

 "High stress levels experienced from the boardroom to the shop floor frequently result in a decline in work performance, productivity and contribute to individual and family crises."

Companies can only benefit from retaining the services of a trained counsellor who is competent in establishing Employee Assistance Programmes, experienced in formulating policies and a range of brief interventions to assist these individuals.

This course is designed to equip the student with the knowledge and skills necessary to undertake such a task.
