NLP Practitioner Training Course

Choosing an NLP Practitioner training course can be confusing as there are so many training companies out there these days.

This article is designed to guide you through the process of selecting either an accelerated (or fasttrack) NLP Practitioner course or a modular course in Neuro Linguistic Programming, what your criteria is and then whether you want it with Time Line Therapy ™ plus Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy included.

There will be a type of NLP training that's that's good for you, so we have put together some answers to the questions you may want to ask but haven't thought of yet!

Let's look at modular versus fasttrack or accelerated to begin with:

I had the privilege of having experienced both modular and accelerated courses through my trainings and I must say that both had their pluses and minuses.

The modular course you can fit in around your everyday life and get in and out quickly on each round. The accelerated course you can fit in with one swoop and have a concentrated immersion into NLP, Time Line Therapy™ and Hypnotherapy with no breaks in continuity.

There is some talk of needing time to 'integrate' what you have learned (as in the time in between sessions), yet that is a somewhat strange comment. That would be like saying that doctors need time to integrate their learnings before they becomes qualified? Surely integration takes place in the classroom, where you experience the techniques for yourself and answer any questions you had about the processes you are undertaking!

I agree that after the course there is an enormous possibility to gain more experience with what you have learned, but let's not confuse that with the word integration; if the trainings good, the integration has already happened before you leave the training room.

Let's take a look at the trainers style, which may influence how you learn the techniques (and thinking) eloquently.

I recently was talking to a guy who has just participated on an NLP Practitioner course with a respected company but complained to me that one of the trainers, who is well known in the NLP community, was worse than boring in his presentation styles and he, himself could have done better!

Now that is not a good start to your NLP training career is it? You would expect your NLP trainer to have some flair with his/her presentations skills and maybe even use his NLP skills a bit to spark up a good event? So your question number one could be, who is leading the training and what style does he/she use? Personally I would want to speak to a few of the people on the course as well to find out how the trainers are doing. The training company should be able to provide you with this information. Don't always take what they give you either; perhaps ask for someone you would like to speak to (age preference male/female, professional etc).

The next point of call I would make is to ascertain what the flavour of the course is? Is the course completely business orientated, or is it slanted towards self-development/self growth? Perhaps therapy? The website may tell you this, but a phone call is usually the best way to find out who is behind those tidy pages. If personal development or personal growth is of the most interest to you, find out how they structure such a course to allow this to happen.

One of the most important factors of choosing the training is to find out the lineage of the trainer and what's on the training; what can they guarantee you will have learned when you finish? I know some trainers who use a lot of trance work to get people (and themselves) though the course, but at the end many can not remember the content ! The content is not always the most important part, but at the NLP Practitioner level, you need some conscious awareness of what you are doing. You can ask the nlp training company what their curriculum is and get them to send it to you.

Who is your course accredited or certified by? Make sure it's an independent body (like the ANLP for instance) who have no vested interest or training links to the NLP company itself. There are some schools out there who have their own founders as the governing body. That can be a little incestuous and gives you no real assurance of competence of quality training as if you had an outside governing body who can make a company comply with strict rules of compliance to a curriculum and therefore assure quality.

There are many governing bodies in the NLP fraternity, and they will all claim to be the authority, yet remember that NLP is not as yet regulated, so, in fact, all the governing bodies are self-appointed and self governed; you just have to decide which ones are there to assist you and which are there to make a quick buck or gain power for themselves! In fact my choice is always like this; which one has the most authority when it comes to media interest and business profile and then again, do they have my best interests at heart?

How to empower yourself and others using naturally occurring states - anchoring !

How do some people seem to be resourceful at will, whilst others are always at the effect of their feelings?

What would it be like to learn how to take control of your feelings when you need to?

This is the process of anchoring (which comes originally from Pavlov). When you first get stimulated by a person, event or situation (let’s call that stimulus), whatever and whoever is there gets associated to the stimulus and the feeling.

That’s a neurological process, not a thinking process;therefore to undo that, or install new ways, you have to set up conditions as it would happen naturally. We show you how!

With the process of anchoring you can; Get rid of old limiting feelings or limiting beliefs by collapsing them; Get out of procrastination and become motivated; change your relationship to anyone or anything…and the chemicals that used to go with that.

In personal relationships, anchoring is the most common way to ruin a relationship or make it fly!

The proof of the pudding…

” The whole presupposition of fun and passionate belief in the material was outstanding and especially the intelligence in the delivery of the training, giving respect to the intelligence of the delegates… passion, love and respect”.
— Shana Dean, Legal P.A., New York
