Australian College of Applied Professions (ACAP)

As Australia’s foremost provider of Counselling, Psychology, and Social Work higher education, ACAP has not only sustained its position but also ventured into new territories, delivering highly effective courses in Criminology, Coaching, MBA, Practical Legal Training (GDLP), and recently launching a new Master of Information Technology. The College was started in a small upstairs office, in the second half of 1983 on Broadway, Sydney, offering diplomas in counselling and psychotherapy as Australian College of Applied Psychology. ACAP’s unwavering commitment to experiential learning, community focus, and flexibility set it apart from traditional institutions, providing students with an alternative to the rigid academic environment of the time. From the outset, ACAP’s vision revolved around graduating students who would contribute positively to the community and make the world a better place. Throughout a four-decade journey, ACAP has expanded beyond human services, venturing into management and law, recognising that human skills are critical across all industries.
