Reviews from participants

 1. "I love the learning methodology here where we reflected at various levels - knowledge, reaction, feeling and application. That takes learning to another level. The peer and supervision support was amazing. Felt honored to be guided by Dr. BJ Prashantham Sir who is the Indian Counselling Guru. Even if you have decades of experience and have a PhD, join this course to master the art of counseling skills which you may not even learn at the most prestigious institutes in India at PhD or MPhil level. This course changed my life both personally and professionally and that is some really deep change. Go for it! "

-   Mrs. Sruthi Ravindran, Professional  Counsellor, Delhi. Batch 171

 2. "I would recommend every person who is interested to be in counselling profession should interface with CCC at least once in his/her life time. By enrolling for any of their programs to truly learn the art of helping. I have never seen such a perfect mix of best teacher, course content, tools, methods and scope for skill practice - a perfect blend of learning experience to cherish for a life time."

- Dr. Jayashree A.G., Founder Director (Kadal Consulting Service), Hyderabad. Batch 171

 3. * The course provided an insightful learning experience for me to grow professionally and personally to lead a successful life
*All the sessions filled with loaded informations and breakout sessions enriched me by experiencing continuous brainstorming to understand various aspects of human well being
* The course enabled me to learn the counselling skills and experiences of counselling in field and peer group skills practice sessions gave me a clear vision to apply skills in an effective manner.
* No doubt every one attended the course should identify their personality and start to develop the opposite polarity and at length, the same may transform each one to a new person with new habits of highly successful people and over come their self limiting beliefs.
* Through the interaction with our Director, Course coordinator and teachers I learned the effective methods of teaching, genuineness in personality, commitment and dedication in work, the mentality to serve and to be served, the proper planning and execution of work, over all a group of dedicated teachers, the role models to future generations guiding their followers to search the meaning of their life
* The course made me to change the entire perception of my life
