FAQs
......................................................................

Are the courses accredited?
 
Yes, all of our CBT courses are accreditated. For more information on APT accreditation click here.
......................................................................

Does this training entitle me to practise CBT?
 
It is your professional qualification that entitles you to see clients/patients and part of your professional responsibility is to keep up to date with relevant interventions such as CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, etc. and that is where the APT modules come in. Since 1983 APT has been probably the major supplier of CBT training like this in the UK.
......................................................................

How long will it take me to complete an online course?
 
This varies from person-to-person, depending on how much they want to
get out of the course - for example, it has taken some people who are already familiar with CBT only 3-4 hours to complete the CBT: Key Knowledge and Skill course,
whilst others have taken four or five times
as long, re-watching videos and going back over material until they are sure they understand it.
......................................................................

Do I get a certificate after completion?
 
Yes, if you have successfully reached the pass mark of 85% or above, you can print off a certificate to verify your success.

The Quiz - this offers interactive features such as ‘multiple choice’, true/false’ and ‘ordering’ questions, along with additional topic information whether you get answers right or wrong.

......................................................................

What is the pass mark?
 
The pass mark is 85% or above.
......................................................................

What if I don’t reach the pass mark?
  
You will be given the opportunity to redo the module.
......................................................................

Can I redo the course to gain a better score?
  
Yes, if you would like to gain a better score you can redo your module.
......................................................................

Once I have successfully completed the course, am I still able to access the content?
  
Yes, if there is something you would like
to go back to, you are able to re-access
the course.
......................................................................

Am I eligible to undertake these courses?
  
Yes, there is no reason why you shouldn’t undertake any of our courses; they are designed to be as accessible and ‘transparent’ as possible. Bear in mind though that you will only be able to use
the content with clients/patients if you
have a professional qualification, e.g. psychiatric nurse, social worker, occupational therapist, psychologist, psychiatrist. It is your professional qualification that entitles you to work with clients/patients, not a CBT qualification.
......................................................................

Why can't I print-off my certificate?
  
If you have not reached the pass mark of 85% or above you will need to redo the module - you also need to view every page of the online module to enable the system to generate a certificate.
......................................................................

Why are the system requirements?
  
APT online training currently works with Microsoft Windows using Internet Explorer (currently it is unavailable for Mac users, although this is something we are looking at developing).
