The Association for Psychological Therapies (APT).

APT provides over 10,000 participant-days training per annum, mainly to the UK National Health and Social Services. Employing over 100 highly experienced clinical and educational psychologists on a consultancy basis our area of expertise is predominantly in mental health and related fields. We pride ourselves on providing the most interesting, exciting, relevant and applicable training, on courses ranging from 1 to 12 days. Our specialist areas are: • Adult Mental Health • Children and Adolescents • Older People • Learning Disability • Brain Injury • Forensic • Substance Misuse The training is provided predominantly 'OnSite', meaning we come to you. You provide the teaching room, participants and any refreshments, we provide everything else. That way you train a 'critical mass' of staff in a given subject so they can support each other subsequently. Timings can be arranged to fit in with staff availability, so a three-day course may run from Tuesday to Thursday or, say, three consecutive Wednesdays. Professions attending our courses include: psychiatric nurses, social workers, occupational therapists, clinical psychologists and psychiatrists, in that order. The way we maintain quality is by spending a lot of time developing and maintaining the course content, and then recruiting talented professionals to deliver it. In turn they feed in to the development process which results in continuously maintained quality. We check this my obtaining feedback on the two key scales of relevance and presentation-quality from every attender. Moreover we write to attenders a few months after the training to check on its usefulness.
