Yes. CPD (Continued Professional Development) Points are Awarded to All Courses. Often up to 500 points can be awarded, please check with whom you are registered for their guidelines on how many points they award for online courses, as they all differ. To give you an example: FHT, Thinktree and others who accredit and approve our courses award CPD points to all distance learning online courses but they all award different amounts of points, no two professional bodies are the same. This is why when you check with the professional body you are with, they will be happy to let you know what’s awarded as we cannot set the number of CPD points, this is done by the accreditation bodies themselves.

We offer great discounts & instalment payment options on balance payments to help you budget. The tutor will contact you with the available instalment options if needed as soon as you have paid the course deposit for your chosen course.

That is down to you, it can be completed as little as around 4-6 months.  There is a 1 year time limit.

Students have 1 year to complete the course, but can complete much sooner if they prefer.

Yes, you will be provided with the information for your tutor in your course confirmation and welcome email. Your tutor will be there to support and guide you throughout the duration of your course.

Yes. We have many students from the UK, Ireland, USA, Canada and across Europe.

The one question we have been asked by most students is how to find work after you have trained with us, so we have teamed up with a company that can help! They can find therapists who work in London and all around the UK, whether it is part-time work or full time they can help. We will put you in touch with them once you have trained with us. We want to make sure we look after the students that train with us to make it easier to build your client base or just top up what you already have.

When taking a distance learning course with Gateway, you have peace of mind that you will be training with a long-established company, whose training courses are recognised and passed by the top professional bodies, ensuring quality training and courses written by experienced tutors.

All Gateway tutors hold a professional teacher training qualification (often the Award in education or PTLLS level 3 or 4 or equivalent) and have also been a therapist for many years as well as a trainer, so you know you are in good hands if you require any help from them with regard to the distance learning course you have chosen.
