What is NLP Training and Certification?

LEEDS, ENGLAND, November 09, 2012 (Press-News.org) NLP stands for neuro-linguistic programming. It examines the link between how we think and feel (neuro), how we communicate (linguistic) and how we are programmed to behave (programme). Training in NLP helps you to understand these processes, and thus gives you the knowledge and tools to be able to change negative patterns of thought and behaviour into positive ones, both in yourself, and in your relationships and dealings with others.

But there are many different NLP courses around and it can be confusing knowing which one is right for you: what is NLP training; what is NLP certification?

Julie McGeever, founding owner and teacher at the Leeds based NLP coaching school, Peak Performance, explains the difference:

What is NLP Training?

NLP can help anyone, and beginner courses are available, that are tailored towards helping people achieve their individual goals in life, either personal or professional. NLP courses that cover one day or a weekend of coaching can give people an excellent grounding for understanding the basics of NLP theory and how they can apply it to their own life and goals.

However, having undertaken training in NLP, many people are inspired to share their knowledge with others and become NLP practitioners themselves. In order to practice NLP, students are advised to undertake a longer, more in-depth course that gives them NLP certification.

What is NLP Certification?

NLP is a complex subject and can be a powerful tool, so is widely recognised and respected. If you are investing in NLP certification or practitioner training, it is important to make sure that a course is credible and professional.

Look for Certified Practitioner or Master Practitioner courses that are fully accredited. Peak Performance is a Certifying Institute of the ITA (International Trainers' Academy of NLP). This means that we work in partnership with the ITA and train to the ITA Standard. Full Certified and Master Practitioner courses cannot be covered fully in just a day or over a weekend. For example, our NLP Practitioner courses take at least 10 days to complete, and all modules must be completed in order to achieve your NLP Practitioner certificate.
