Thomas Baker –
After completing this course, I feel like I’ve genuinely improved how I communicate with people. The parts on active listening and empathy stood out the most for me, and I’ve already noticed a difference in how I handle conversations at work. This was a good course, and the support staff was very cooperative in handling any query I had.
Hannah Collins –
Level 2 Counselling Skills Course was easy to follow and well organised. Breaking it into small sections made it simple to keep up and understand each topic properly.
Jack Adams –
I enjoyed this Counselling skills course, and it really changed how I listen to people, especially in my volunteer work. The parts on active listening and not jumping to conclusions were honestly eye-opening. I would definitely recommend this course with Excelon Learning, as the tutor and administrative staff are also very helpful.
Charlotte Evans –
Really useful course, especially for my role in HR. The sections on boundaries and confidentiality actually made things click for me, as it’s something we deal with quite often at work. It felt practical rather than just theoretical. It also gave me clearer confidence in handling sensitive situations professionally and making better judgment calls in real scenarios.
William Scott –
I was a bit unsure before starting, but it turned out to be easier to get into than I thought. It helped me deal with customers better, especially in difficult situations. Didn’t feel too heavy or overwhelming at any point, everything was explained in a clear, simple way that made it easy to follow, and the content stayed practical and useful rather than getting lost in unnecessary complexity.
