Introduction The Service Accreditation Scheme helps the public and practitioners identify services providing a high standard of counselling / psychotherapy. It sets the standard to which all counselling and psychotherapy services can aspire and encompasses the whole range of providers from the small local voluntary group to major commercial Employee Assistance Programme providers. This scheme has joined BACP’s established and well-respected schemes for the accreditation of individual practitioners, supervisors and training courses. The Service Accreditation Scheme is open to counselling/psychotherapy services who are BACP organisational members and thus subject to the Association’s Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy and who can meet the criteria as detailed in the booklet entitled ’Service Accreditation Scheme’. The booklet is available from BACP at a cost of £5 to members and £6.50 to non-members.
