The trainee PWP position includes undertaking PG and UG certificate in evidence based low intensity CBT at University of East Anglia (UEA) based in Norwich.

After initial training to become a qualified PWP, further internal and external training for working within specialist areas at Step 2 is also provided at BWS.

You will have weekly case management and clinical skills supervision and have regular contact with your line manager to ensure you have all the support needed throughout your training.

Our mission is to make a positive difference to people's lives by improving the quality of life for all we serve. Our values are: We Care, We Respect, We are Inclusive - so we are looking for people who live and breathe these qualities when supporting service users and carers, and in their relationships with colleagues in the Trust and our partner organisations.
