A focused CPD short course on Addiction Counselling — online, self-paced, and built for busy psychology & counselling professionals.
People search for Level 3 Addiction Counselling when they need recognised continuing professional development without pausing their career. UKSM London designed this CPD short course so you can study Addiction Counselling online, keep momentum at work, and finish with a certificate that employers understand as CPD — not as a substitute for a regulated diploma. UKSM London is a CPD Certification Service member (No. 30291). Certificates from this course carry that CPD context so managers and professional bodies can see the learning as continuing development. If you later need a regulated award in psychology & counselling, our sister site uksm.org.uk covers diplomas and degrees. Content is written in plain English for working adults. You will see how core ideas in Addiction Counselling connect to everyday decisions, conversations and quality standards. Where a topic borders on regulated practice, we signpost that this CPD course builds awareness — it does not replace licences, placements or Ofqual-regulated diplomas listed on uksm.org.uk. Whether you are refreshing knowledge or exploring psychology & counselling for the first time, this programme gives you a structured path through Addiction Counselling with clear completion criteria. Keep the certificate for your CPD log, and use the skills section below as a checklist for what you should be able to discuss after finishing.
Study entirely online at your own pace with 12 months' access from enrolment. Assessment is an online multiple-choice quiz.
