Course Structure and your Time Commitment
The total course commitment is 520 hours in total. 120 hours of this is face to face, in a classroom based environment. The remaining 400 hours consists of reading, practice, homework and research for you to complete outside of the classroom. If a lockdown occurs then it will be delivered by Zoom.
The course requires you to attend 20 days. If you are unable to attend one of the days, then you can, if possible, join us on zoom, or you are welcome to join us for that training session on another course at a later date in person, or where possible I will help you catch up on a one to one basis.
This is a practical course and although there is some theory, which is necessary for your knowledge, most of the learning is done by watching demonstrations and then practicing yourself within supervised groups, and then practicing at home..
You will receive full printed training material:
- A comprehensive set of notes covering each module of the course and an extensive set of Hypnotherapy Scripts
- A complete ‘build a business manual’ training guides covering all aspects of Marketing
The day will start at 9.00am, there will be an hour dinner break at approximately 1.00pm, and there will be a 15 minute coffee break in the morning, and in the afternoon, and 5.30pm will be the finish time. Each of the 20 days of live training consist of lectures, group exercises, and practice.
