BACP Operations
- BACP seeks to advise and inform national and international policy and procedures concerned with counselling and psychotherapy, offering information and guidance to those involved in the process.
- BACP is consulted by government bodies, professional bodies, funding organisations, teaching institutions and many others on important issues concerning counselling and psychotherapy. The Association is strongly committed to high practice standards and the protection of the public.
- The Association sets, promotes and maintains standards for the profession. The Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy alongside the Professional Conduct Procedure ensures that members of BACP abide by an accepted code of conduct and accountability.
- The Association publishes a directory of members on their website, as well as a paper version, which allows those seeking counselling to find a counsellor in their area.
- The Association also accredits counsellors with the appropriate training and experience via a rigorous accreditation process, that requires continued education to maintain accreditation.

Famous quotes containing the word operations:
“It may seem strange that any road through such a wilderness should be passable, even in winter, when the snow is three or four feet deep, but at that season, wherever lumbering operations are actively carried on, teams are continually passing on the single track, and it becomes as smooth almost as a railway.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
