The core of this certified course is the 300 page National Guild of Hypnotists’ training manual.
The course will be held in London. It consists of two modules of 8 days each – a total of 16 days classroom training – plus home study and assignments. Each training day runs from 9am to about 5.30pm with breaks for coffee/tea and lunch.
Hypnotherapy is both a theoretical and practical based study. We believe that it is very important for a student to not only know the information taught, but also to be able to use this information in a practical way. To this end, a large proportion of the course is dedicated to demonstrations and practice sessions.
The Practitioner Diploma Course offered has been externally assessed and validated at Practitioner Level by the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (UK) and provides the basis for their externally awarded General Qualification in Hypnotherapy Practice (GQHP). It also fully meets the standards of the National Guild of Hypnotists.
On satisfactorily completing the course, students will become members of the National Guild of Hypnotists and will be eligible to join the General Hypnotherapy Register, the UK’s largest hypnotherapy organisation.
