I enjoyed Open colleges while completing my Diploma of Counselling. However was very confused to find out that OC diploma doesn't give you the same as a diploma from other providers. When I tried to become registered has a counsellor OC students have to do 24 supervisions throughout a year, compared to 12 like other qualified counsellors. It's like a diploma but you come out on your P's rather then your full licence. Given the cost and time given to complete this Diploma, I was frustrated that there was also no exploration from OC as to why this was either. However the staff are very lovely. The outlay was easy to navigate, and given that face to face learn as been disrupted during 2020 and 2021, I was very happy to be learning online from the beginning. And the path way to continue further study at Charles Sturt Uni is a fantastic pathway for those who wish to continue their studies.
