Has SEPTIMUS widened accessibility <strong>to</strong><br />

psychotherapy training?<br />

Application data says that <strong>of</strong> 156 students who enrolled:<br />

• over 50% live further than 100 km from the training centre<br />

• 7% have a disability<br />

• 65% have been prevented from previously applying for training<br />

Of these, the most common reasons were:<br />

• lack <strong>of</strong> practical experience/ academic qualifications (60%)<br />

• financial limitations (54%)<br />

• geographical distance (56%)<br />

• childcare responsibilities (19%)<br />

So SEPTIMUS has achieved its main goal <strong>of</strong> widening accessibility<br />

<strong>to</strong> psychotherapy training by using e-learning e<br />

methods. But is it<br />

preferable <strong>to</strong> traditional ways <strong>of</strong> teaching psychotherapy?
