Some of our courses are open to a wider range of professionals. Information about who each course is designed for can be found on the event page under ‘Who this course is for.’ If you are unsure about your eligibility, please contact us at events@baat.org.
Please note that our CPD courses are short training opportunities intended for ongoing professional development. While you may be able to attend even if you are not an art therapist, these courses do not provide a professional qualification and do not entitle you to use any protected professional title other than those for which you are already qualified.
In the UK, the titles ‘Art Therapist’ and ‘Art Psychotherapist’ are legally protected. Only those who have completed an HCPC-approved masters degree and are registered with the HCPC in that profession may use these titles. This requirement is set by UK law, not by BAAT. You can read more on the HCPC’s website.
