•        To gain knowledge of and insight into the most important basic principles of cognitive and behavioural therapy;
•        To gain insight into and practise cognitive and behavioural therapy analyses and case conceptualisations similar to those that will be much-used in future professional practice and during the internship;
•        To gain insight into and practise several frequently-occurring cognitive and behavioural therapy interventions similar to those that will be much-used in future professional practice and during the internship;
•        To learn how to write a professional report on a therapeutic treatment, as well as on student’s own academic, professional and personal development.

How tests relate to learning objectives
 
There are two compulsory sub-tests. The first sub-test concerns the required reading and lecture material. The therapeutic treatment report is subsequently assessed. The sub-test on the literature mainly tests knowledge of and insight into the most important basic principles and applications of cognitive and behavioural therapy. The therapeutic treatment report tests insight into and experience with several cognitive and behavioural therapy applications. These tests specifically assess the following learning objective:

1.        Having completed the course, students can conceptualise and analyse a client's problems from a cognitive and behavioural therapy approach at beginner level.
2.        Students can critically reflect on the treatment applied, the required professional skills and their own development as a professional caregiver in training.
3.        Students can assume personal responsibility for the scientific, academic and psychological quality of their own actions.
4.        Students can write up a report on a behavioural and cognitive treatment that meets the form requirements for a therapeutic treatment report (N=1 study) and learning report.
Inhoud
The course comprises conceptualising, analysing and treating a client's problems with a cognitive and behavioural therapy approach at beginner level. The themes of the lectures and working groups follow the cognitive and behavioural therapy process. Cognitive and behavioural therapy diagnostics are the main focus at the start of the course. Students then drawn up an individual treatment plan and make a well-considered choice from various intervention methods. In the following weeks, the main focus will be on cognitive and behavioural therapy interventions. During the lectures, students and lecturers will extensively discuss the theory and bring it to life by continuously presenting and discussing examples from professional practice. In the supervised working groups, students will practise various aspects of the cognitive and behavioural therapy process through case studies, 'good practice' DVDs, role plays and peer reviews. Students then practise the skills for that week further in the unsupervised working groups.
