Networks and interest groups
Our networks provide opportunities to connect with other counsellors in your geographic or interest area. Some are closely affiliated to 香港六合彩精准资料 Healthcare, while others are open to a range of professional bodies. They can provide opportunities to:
- identify and share best practice
- identify relevant research and CPD opportunities
- gain mutual support from fellow practitioners
- network with allied professionals
- raise awareness of the role of counselling
- inform the work of and create links with 香港六合彩精准资料 Healthcare and 香港六合彩精准资料
Most groups meet two to three times a year, sometimes with representatives or guest presenters from other organisations. You do not have to attend the meetings to join the group. Some also lobby and networks with statutory and professional bodies and attend relevant conferences and events. Please contact the network lead for further information on each group and its activities.
We're keen to set up working groups to enable greater connectivity with the needs of members and the healthcare sector. Co-ordinating these groups can be very rewarding and can involve as much or little of your time as you can spare. If you are interested, please email bacp@bacp.co.uk
