The CHC51015 Diploma of Counselling has a number of core units that require you to demonstrate your ability to perform certain tasks within a simulated work context, and some include the requirement that your mock client be in the same room as you.
The units that require that your mock client be in the same room as you for the performance assessments are:
CHCCSL001 Establish and confirm the counselling relationship

In all other units in Diploma, unless specifically stated otherwise in the assessment, the mock client can be in another physical location to the student.
