How We Assess Applications
Prospective hypnotherapists come from such a variety of backgrounds and are aiming for such different goals and this is reflected in the variety of different types of training courses on offer. To support this variety the Society believes that different types of training courses should all be able to achieve peer recognition.
We take into account the different types and levels of training courses, and encourage you to apply free of charge. Our system looks at quality, not just quantity and we acknowledge the qualities and ethos of different training schools – and trainers.
However, we are fully aware of the importance of widely recognised standards such as the various relevant National Occupational Standards and the Qualifications and Curriculum Framework. An officer of the Society helped to write the revised National Occupational Standards for Hypnotherapy working in tandem with the UK Commission for Employment and Skills.
Your application will be assessed by an officer of the Society, who will be there to support you through the process and offer guidance on the level of membership that we can offer your school – and also advice on upgrading if you choose to do so.
National Hypnotherapy Society membership will help your school and your students reach their full potential.
