What People Say About this Refresher Course
From Richard Wain, of the ACCPH “These are wonderful modules for refreshing knowledge of the specific areas covered. I love your style of writing, it makes everything so easy to digest. These will all carry ACCPH CPD Validation but also CPD Endorsement – a grade higher than Validation.”
Thoroughly enjoyable – and the video demos are a triumph! … It was great to watch a real-life demo and also to be able to pause and re-watch them, as well as pick up tips about things that I’d forgotten. JA
It was set out in a very straightforward way, with clear guidance around tasks and resources. The videos were excellent and brought the techniques alive. CA
The course provided useful information, references and tasks to both test my knowledge and enhance it. I can highly recommend training with Debbie. KG

*If you have taken a break from hypnotherapy practice, we recommend contacting the professional body you would like to join before taking this course. Ask what re-training they expect you to have before accepting you as a practitioner level member: this may depend on the length of time you have been out of the profession and what you have been doing during that time. Once you have their advice, you can choose the appropriate modules to meet their expectations.
