1. Our Ethos

We believe that NLP would benefit virtually everyone worldwide. Our intention and desire is to make NLP as widely known, accessible and accepted throughout the world as possible. For many people, having a UK University recognise our NLP courses will open the door to a wider acceptance of NLP, which will benefit everyone.

Our trainings are comprehensive, thorough and enjoyable. We want our students to not only know NLP, but to know they know it and to operate from an extremely high level of competence and ecology.

As much as possible we avoid some of the ‘politics’ within NLP, and we affiliate ourselves with ANLP International, an organisation which welcomes competent people regardless of which school they have trained at.

2. Why attend our NLP Trainers Training Course?

• To take your NLP knowledge to new levels, and become even more fluent in using NLP. It’s one thing to know it well enough to use it – it’s another to know it well enough to teach it.
• To run NLP Practitioner and Master Practitioner courses. If this is something you would like to do, in our opinion it is one of the best ways to make a difference. You know how much impact NLP had in your life, don’t you? Well, imagine being able to create that for others!
• Even if you don’t plan to run Practitioner or Master Practitioner courses, preferring to run for example, in-house NLP-based communication courses, you’ll have an academically recognised qualification, which will help you stand out from the competition. And if your organisational client happens to want, for example, an in-house Business Practitioner, you’ll be able to provide it, which will far exceed the cost of our NLP Trainers Training course.
• Having an academically recognised NLP Trainers Training certificate will help distinguish you from other trainers and coaches. You can gain an academically recognised qualification to use NLP in up to two of five fields– business, sport, coaching, education and health.
• We will advise you on how to take your qualification forward commercially – ‘the business of training’.
• If you want to get a Masters degree in Applied Coaching, you will be half-way there.
• We are committed to taking the field of NLP forward, by enhancing standards. We are committed to excellence. As one of our Trainers, you will know that you know the material!

3. Entry Requirements

The NLP Trainers Training course is open to anyone who has an NLP Practitioner and an NLP Master Practitioner certificate and who we believe would be appropriate for the course. We will interview all applicants who we do not know or who we have not trained.

4. Evaluation

Your evaluation will comprise the following five aspects:

• a 3,000 word reflective essay. Further details on this will be sent by separate email. This will need to be completed within three months of booking, and in any event by 30 June.
• a closed book written test – pass mark approximately 75%
• one presentation of an NLP topic – approximately 30 minutes. Notes will be permitted.
• a demonstration of one of the NLP patterns.
• operating from the presuppositions of NLP, being an example of NLP excellence, building and maintaining rapport, from the time you book and throughout the course.

5. Pre-Study for our NLP Trainers Training Course & Evaluation

To prepare for the course, we strongly suggest that you do the pre-course work that we will recommend when you book onto the course.

6. The academic element and links with the Masters course

Our NLP Trainers Training course attracts credits towards the MA in Applied Coaching run in partnership between The Performance Solution and the University of Derby Corporate. For further details of the MA, please contact lucy@theperformancesolution.com (01225 867285).

7. Course Content and Structure

In summary, the NLP Trainers Training course will cover topics to help you:

• Structure brilliant presentations
• Structure top-notch training course
• Target your training to specific contexts

8. Open Day for our NLP Trainers Training Course

The Open Day is a free 1 day event held at the University of Surrey, Guildford from 9.30 – 4, on Tuesday 6 March 2012.
