The Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner (PWP) programme provides the formal training required to qualify as a Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner.

The programme was developed from a governmental white paper that discussed the devastating effect that depression and anxiety disorders have on individuals, their families and society.

The training is a combination of teaching, skills practice, directed reading, online learning, workshops, clinical seminar skills groups and clinical practice under supervision in an NHS funded service.

Students on the programme will have a training contract as a trainee PWP within an NHS Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) service, where they will deliver low intensity cognitive behavioural interventions for anxiety and depression.

The training programme is of nine-month duration, consisting of one day per week of university teaching and four days per week working in their service employer.

The course programme consists of three core modules (20 credits each) which are based on the National Curriculum for the Education of Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners.
