I recently completed the Postgraduate Certificate in School Counselling (Advanced) from Stanmore School of Business, and I must say that it was a thoroughly enjoyable and enriching experience. As a school counselor in Singapore, I was looking to expand my knowledge of counseling theories and techniques, as well as gain practical skills in areas such as group counseling and crisis intervention. The course provided a comprehensive overview of these topics, and the instructors were knowledgeable and supportive throughout. The course materials were well-organized and easy to follow, although some of the readings could be a bit lengthy at times. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more case studies or real-world examples to illustrate the concepts. Nevertheless, I'm satisfied with the course and feel that it has helped me achieve my learning goals. I would recommend it to anyone looking to advance their career in school counseling.
