I'm based outside the UK — can I still join?

At a Glance

Yes. The Counsellor CPD Library has members across the world, including Ireland, India, Kenya, Botswana, Australia, and beyond. International practitioners are welcome.

A truly international community

Although based in the UK, the library is used by counsellors and psychotherapists in many countries. The lectures cover topics, approaches, and presentations that are relevant in any therapeutic setting — they are not framed only around the UK system.

CPD recognition outside the UK

Library certificates are recognised by all UK ethical bodies. Many international professional bodies accept UK-issued CPD certificates — but rules vary by country and by body.

If you practise outside the UK, please check your own professional body's rules on overseas CPD providers. We can supply any additional information you may need to support a CPD submission to your body.

Practical considerations

  • Time zones don't matter — the library is on-demand, 24/7, so you access it whenever suits
  • Live lectures are recorded — if a quarterly live event is scheduled at an awkward time for your time zone, the replay is added to the library afterwards
  • Currency and payment — checkout supports international cards; pricing is shown on the membership page

Want to know more?

You can see everything that's included — and current membership options — at the Counsellor CPD Library page.
