Online Anytime Courses for mental health professionals.
APT's online training offers you the opportunity to obtain APT-quality input in a way that is convenient to you and your colleagues and minimizes the need for 'cover' normally associated with training.
The format of APT online training is as follows:
- One year access to slides containing most of the key information.
- Start anytime, and access the training whenever is best for you.
- Exercises that help you assimilate the material and relate it to your own work.
- Narration that adds observations and depth to the material.
- Video (in most cases).
- Resources which you can use on the course and download subsequently for use in your own practice (renewable after 3 years).
- An exam to test your knowledge and give you Level 2 APT-accreditation in the subject.
- A Downloadable certificate when you pass the exam. (You can resit if you don’t pass first time.)
You only pay for courses your team members complete.
If you are a manager buying courses for your team (minimum 15), you can order with complete peace of mind. Attendees have access to the online course for 3 years, so they can revisit it if they wish, and can sit the included online exam free of charge if they want, to upgrade their accreditation. For attendees who don’t complete for whatever reason, you can transfer the training to another staff member (valid for up to 3 years from the date the training was assigned).
The way it works is as simple as possibly can be. Supposing you purchase 100 course places, but at the end of 12 months only 80 of the people have completed the course (most can comfortably be completed in a week or so) then you can transfer 20 places to 20 new delegates.
And you can scale that up or down as you wish. One of the great things about distance learning is its easy scalability.
We think this is a breakthrough in distance learning. The online courses are engaging and relevant (“… I honestly think it is one of the best learning experiences I have had - very motivating." wrote one recent delegate.) But of course some people don’t take to distance learning for whatever reason, so why should an organization pay for those places? Well now you don’t have to!

Online Anytime Course Reviews.
APT prides itself on the feedback we receive about our training. Below are just some of the great comments our 'online anytime' courses have received.
"Incredibly insightful, delightfully delivered and prompting some very interesting ideas of how to apply the techniques and knowledge learned into practice. Very happy to have completed this course and sad to see the end of it. It has absolutely inspired me to continue my studies into CBT further. Big thanks to the course instructor!"
"The structure of the course was well done. It built a good foundation before moving onto the critical components and their application. I liked the variety in reading the information, the narrative, and the video segments of therapist with a patient…… So glad I was able to find this type of training online. Thank you for putting this together." (CBT Essentials)
"This was a wonderful online course." (CBT Essentials)
"I found the content very interesting and would be encouraged to progress further with other courses in this area. In terms of access and delivery, the course was very synchronized with visuals and audio with video links and resources easily accessed." (CBT Essentials)
"It's difficult to get engaged with a lot of online courses but this one was very good." (CBT Essentials)
"I thought the length of each module, the tone in which it is presented and the videos very informative and engaging. I have been so empowered through doing this course that I am actually on track with how I engage with people in my role and also learnt some new skills. I have sent the link to this course to several people as I honestly think it is one of the best learning experiences I have had - very motivating. Thank you." (Motivational Interviewing)
"The course was fantastic." (CBT Essentials)
"A great course with fantastic information that I am looking forward to using." (DBT Essentials)
"The course was informative and to the point. Presented by a practitioner who spoke from experience made the subject matter more credible and easier to follow. As I am working FT in the mental health field I could not find a program that suited my time constraints and in particular the content I was looking for. APT fitted in so well. Thank you." (CBT Essentials)
"The course exceeded my expectations. I found the information and knowledge delivered to be of a very high quality. It was easy to follow and allowed the person to advance at their own pace." (APT School for Tutors)
"Great; well put-together course, pleasant and calming narration. After struggling with workbooks and textbooks and vague instructor explanations I FINALLY feel like I have a foothold in the building blocks of CBT, the conceptualisations, the assessments, the techniques, and the evidence-based evaluations….. Again, great course and thanks very much for making this accessible and clear to me for the first time in a way that I will integrate in to my ongoing practice." (CBT Esentials)
"I really enjoyed the course and listening to the care and empathy expressed by the ""voice"" and the tone and modulation of the delivery - it felt like basking in warm sunshine ... on a sultry day ... evoking safety and trust." (DBT Essentials)
"The course was interesting and thought provoking not only for how it might be used with clients but also for use in the trainee's own life. It was clear and well-structured, with each slide clearly explained and each module well summarized." (DBT Essentials)
