ICPPD – The International College for Personal and Professional Development was founded in 2009 by Christine and Tom Moran, having evolved out of New Beginnings Counselling Ltd, a professional, compassionate, confidential not-for-profit counselling service established by Tom and Christine Moran. ICPPD was founded to develop training courses and education services while allowing New Beginnings to focus on offering counselling and supervision services.
ICPPD is a leader in the field of personal and professional development for members of the public and for professionals in the caring and helping arena.
