Credit precedents

• The profession of counselling is accredited by two peak professional associations in Australia; the Australian Counselling Association (ACA) and the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA). Both of these peak bodies endorse the Bachelor of Counselling at UniSC. Compliance with the training standards of ACA and PACFA is necessary to maintain endorsement. In regard to awarding course credit, the PACFA training standard (standard 4.2) states that no academic credit is allowed for the client contact and clinical supervision requirements which takes place during training. At UniSC, this pertains to two courses – COU363 and COU364 . However, given that COU361 and COU362 are co-requisites for COU363 and COU364 respectively, it includes them indirectly. E.g. you cannot enrol in COU363 without also studying its co-requisite, COU361 . Other courses (not placement related courses) in the program can be considered for credit.
