Our field continues to grow and develop rapidly, not only in terms of the theory and research that underpins our clinical work but also in the breadth and richness of the clinical skills that allow us to apply this knowledge in ways that empower those who seek help from us. Recent submissions to this journal are testament to the growing technology evolving around issues such as training and supervision. The pace of development of the basic and applied science that underpins the work of CBT practitioners is unparalleled. The BABCP and this journal have contributed to and influenced these developments; we need to continue to do so.
