17/10/2008: BACP Annual Conference 2008: 17-18 October 2008

BACP Annual Conference 2008, including AGM and Counselling & Psychotherapy Awards
17-18 October 2008, Telford International Centre, Telford.

BACP is pleased to announce details for the 2008 annual conference and AGM.

Your Conference Your Profession

In terms of the prominence of counselling and psychotherapy, we live in both exciting yet challenging times. The profession has never been more high profile and prominent in the Government’s mind, for politicians and policy makers, nor has it been more accepted and ‘alive’ in the minds of the general public than it is now.

This conference will explore the seismic changes happening in the profession, what the future holds and how this will affect those working within this arena. It will look at the challenges the profession faces, as well as examining the therapeutic relationship and some of the wider social issues that therapists are currently encountering.

The conference is designed to appeal to a wide audience, and both students and experienced therapists will find sessions to suit their level of knowledge. Delegates will be able to choose from a wide variety of sessions each day.

In addition to the main conference, there will be an exhibition area and plenty of opportunities to meet with colleagues, old and new. The Association’s AGM will take place on Friday evening followed by our annual awards’ ceremony. This is a time to celebrate some of the fabulous work in the counselling and psychotherapy arena as well as being another valuable networking opportunity (free of charge to conference delegates).
