Students’ National Research Success
During the 2 years of study on the HPD in Counselling our students engage in a Sub-Group Research Project which spans an eighteen month period.
LC&CTA encourages its students to share their research at national level and sponsors its successful students to present at the Annual bacp National Research Conference which is held in various parts of the country, during May each year. LC&CTA students have successfully had numerous research papers accepted for presentation at this Conference since 2006.
