NLP Diploma: Level 1

INLPTA Accredited Trainer

Course Summary

Are you looking for easy to learn and practical NLP tools to manage yourself, understand and communicate better with others and get really clear about what’s important to you in your life and work?

NLP is short for Neuro-Linguistic Programming and describes the 3 parts of the human communication process.

  • The Neurological effect
  • The Language Patterns we use
  • The Programming is about our habitual programmes and behaviours and also how we can re-write those programmes

NLP was originally developed by Richard Bandler and John Grinder and is the study of excellence. They believed it was possible to identify the patterns of thoughts and behaviours of successful individuals and to teach or model them to others.

The NLP Diploma programme has been specifically created as a result of feedback from people like you who are looking for level 1 (introduction) training, leading to strong foundations in NLP. Even though NLP gives you the perfect tools for a practising coach, you do not need to have knowledge or experience in coaching to enrol in this diploma, as it is an entirely stand-alone programme.

When enrolling, you will join as a cohort with our NLP Practitioner students at the beginning of their training too, which means you are able to continue your journey and easily progress to the more advanced Practitioner level programme if you wish to.

We are also pleased to say our NLP Diploma is fully accredited by INLPTA (The International NLP Trainers Association) and meets their full assessment criteria.
