FDAMH COSCA Training: First Session

Specialising in Mental Health and Wellbeing support and training, Falkirk’s Mental Health Association (FDAMH) is pleased to announce that applications for their upcoming COSCA Certificate in Counselling Skills (COSCA) training courses are now being accepted.

Starting on Wednesday 20 August 2025 and lasting 9 months, this will be an online course delivered via Zoom. No previous experience or qualifications required to participate, though there is an application process, and a course fee of £1,300 per participant (payment plans can be organised).

An accredited SQA Level 8 course, COSCA is aimed at anyone looking to improve their understanding of other people, as well as themselves, as counselling skills can not only enhance the quality of personal relationships, but can also improve workplace performance. The course teaches advanced, practical communication skills, developed through a combination of theory and hands-on practice, which combine to develop listening and attention, effective communication, and advanced relational skills.
