“I’m buzzing. I did my free talk on mental rehearsal tonight to a bigger group of elite junior athletes, parents and coaches. It went even better than the first one and at the end of the session all of the adults asked for my card. I’ve also now been booked to do a paid talk on mental performance to a judo club. This is all as a result of recommendation, and using materials prepared on the ILM Recognised Train the Trainer course.”

Frequently Asked Questions
How will I learn all this in 4 days?
For each topic you will first learn the key theory and background. Then you will see a demonstration and do an exercise to put it into practice. Finally, you will discuss how to apply the learnings. There will be numerous presenting / training exercises, and you will learn different approaches to use for different groups. The trainers and the coaching assistants will be there to give you feedback and support to improve your skills.
Also, the course is taught by Jeremy Lazarus, a Master Trainer of NLP and a former Finance Director, with more than 10,000 hours of presenting and running training courses, including several media appearances. Jeremy had to learn about presentations the ‘hard way’, and so will provide the empathy and feedback to support you in your development.
Will I need to do any pre-course preparation?
Yes! We will let you know about the pre-course preparation, which will mainly involve thinking of a couple of presentations that you want to work on during the course. This pre-study will help you get the most from the course, and will enable you to spend maximum time practicing and minimal time on the theory.

What our students and clients say
Jeremy has a unique approach to bringing out the best in people. He certainly practices what he preaches! Jeremy is one of a handful of trainers/coaches/practitioners that I would, without any hesitation, recommend to others. He is knowledgeable, ethical and shows genuine passion for the work he does and how best to serve others.

I have had the pleasure of studying with Jeremy, and the NLP he has taught has had a wonderful impact on my personal and professional life. Jeremy explains NLP in an accessible, easy, manner and for me took away the fluff of the subject. The practical help on the courses and the smaller classes give you a personal learning environment, perfect for this subject. I highly recommend Jeremy for anyone interested in NLP.

I’ve undertaken three major trainings with Jeremy: NLP Practitioner, NLP Master Practitioner and most recently NLP Sports Practitioner. I keep coming back because the training is thorough, ethical and ecological, and it’s academically recognized. As a career coach I work with people at all stages of their career, across levels and across a wide range of industries.
– Dave Cordle
Before doing the NLP course, I had felt I needed more coaching approaches and methodologies. The course gave me a lot of new techniques which I have used to help my coaching clients. Also I was launching my new coaching brand as I was doing the programme and looking back I can see it helped me to set big targets and reach them.

I found the course to be enlightening both personally and professionally. Jeremy’s experience of the corporate world allowed for a real life perspective to be taken and a focused view into NLP and its application in Business and coaching.
– Simon Fanning
I feel privileged to have discovered NLP, it has changed my life. Understanding communication, the impact of language and being able to change unwanted behaviours has been the difference that made the difference for me. Jeremy is so much more than an NLP Master Trainer. It is a powerful rewarding experience learning and evolving with Jeremy. I highly recommend studying with Jeremy, one of my best decisions.
– Dara Caryotis
Before the course, I was struggling which decision to make about my future- within 4 months of the course, I made a career plan and my business plan.
Myriam Ferreira
What I got from the training was much more than I ever imagined I would get from it, I was blown away by it. Jeremy’s professionalism and delivery of the training was second to none. .. I would highly encourage anyone to train with Jeremy at The Lazarus Consultancy because they will leave knowing NLP and having a mentor for life.
