Am I able to pay for the course in instalments?

How do the 3 hour supervision sessions work and why do I need to do them?
After completing the training, you will receive your CPD certificate.
To be listed on the BWRT®South Africa practitioner list visible to the public, you are required to undergo three one-hour supervision sessions with an appointed BWRT® South African supervisor.
These sessions are essential to uphold the standard and quality of therapy in public practice.
Upon completing your supervision sessions, your profile will be updated and added to our public database.
Supervision sessions typically involve case study discussions or protocol practice, tailored to the needs and agreements between the Supervisor and Practitioner, and last approximately 60 minutes.
The supervision fee for 2024 is set at R1200 per hour, payable directly to the Supervisor.
I am a Social Worker but I do not have a Master’s Degree. Can I train as a BWRT® practitioner?
Social Workers with clinical experience working in an NGO that employs trained, qualified, and accredited BWRT® practitioners can become BWRT® Emergency Practitioners. This training, conducted within the organisational setting, equips them to deliver specific BWRT® emergency techniques under continuous supervision from BWRT® accredited supervisors. The organisation must request the training, and employ a minimum of 15 social workers and at least 3 BWRT® accredited supervisors. These practitioners are not authorised to practice BWRT® privately, they also have to be registered with the SACSSP.
For more information on arranging training for your organisation, please contact Huda Gamieldien at huda@bwrtsa.co.za.
