Apply - DATS

If you’re thinking about training with DATS, you can start by filling in the form

This is a chance for us to get to know a little about you, what’s brought you to counselling and what you’re looking for from your training. It gives us a starting point for getting to know you and having a conversation about whether DATS feels like the right place for you.

Filling in the form doesn’t commit you to anything. Once we’ve received it, we’ll get back to you about the next steps and arrange a conversation where we can talk through the course, answer any questions and make sure DATS feels like the right fit for you.

You don’t need to have it all figured out before you apply.

Take your time, tell us a little about yourself, and we’ll take it from there.
