What kind of organization is the National Guild of Hypnotists?
The NGH is the largest and most prestigious worldwide hypnosis certifying organization. It has regular educational conferences in Marlborough, Massachusetts with well over 1500 participants. There are also NGH sponsored legal advocates who participate in legislatures all over the country representing the Guild’s members. The Guild is highly supportive, having a lending library of videos and audio tapes, referrals, legislative support, regular local meetings, and much more.
Why should I choose to train with you?
The curriculum is based in time honored techniques in hypnotism.
Class size is kept to a maximum of ten students, so you get a great deal of individual attention, and the training provides you with the opportunity to do work on your own self-improvement in the class, as well.
When you complete the program, you'll have the tools you need to work with most of the challenges presented to hypnotists. You will also have the opportunity to gain more expertise and obtain your CEUs by attending advanced classes offered throughout the year.
Classes will start on March 22, 2008 at 9:00 AM.
Many students are amazed that they not only learn to help others, but their own lives improve profoundly in the process by practicing the techniques they learn in their own lives. Small groups of 10 or less encourage a bonded community within your class, and this provides additional support for you.
After you complete the NGH training program, you qualify to receive continuing support and advice from their instructor via e-mail and telephone. Students are invited to special training opportunities that result in CEUs, and help promote their new practice and help advance their careers.
