Chrysalis courses

I am currently on the level 5 diploma counselling course and have completed level 4. Unfortunately a couple of things have ruined the experience for me. But firstly, the good stuff: my tutor rhian is lovely, and a great tutor, the content is good and engaging. I love doing the assignments. The negative: Unfortunately the ssps in year two which are already an anxiety provoking experience, are harshly marked unlike the rest of the marking which is fair. Also the uploading and scanning of the ssps is something every trainee counsellor could do without. Improving the uploading and. Marking fairly would highly improve the course as I have now had to wait longer for my certificate. My final point is not chrysalis directly I understand but it’s set up as part of the course that we pay registration to NCps, this is fine and we pay a lot between the course fees, supervision and registration fees etc. NCps changed their system recently and it automatically sent out emails stating that our payments had t gone through, this was highly distressing as we had spent a year ensuring everything was done. If only NCps had warned us or ensured this didn’t happen . We spend a lot of money and time training in counselling and these things can make things easier or more stressful. Overall without those issues I’d highly recommend chrysalis courses.
