T&Cs
Leading NLP (LeadingNLP) is committed to delivering a high quality learning experience
to all its customers. This document collates and details a wide range of relevant

forms part of the terms and conditions for joining training, with commencement of
training being taken as acceptance of these terms and conditions. These terms and
conditions are subject to periodic amendment.
LeadingNLP is proud to be a trainer
member of the ANLP. We recommend that any participant that wishes to professionally
practice NLP, or simply benefit from the ANLP membership and their excellent magazine,

1. Course Admission Criteria. (To include an informal meeting / telephone conversation)
You will be required to complete a pre-course registration form to determine your aims and objectives. This will be followed with a phone conversation and or meeting.
NLP Practitioner training is frequently referred to as being “transformative”, and
for good reason. It is, and produces enhanced understanding and fascinating insights
into how we do what we do, how and why we have done what we have done, and most importantly,
how we can go about achieving that which we seek to achieve in the future.
The nature of NLP training, and the fact we sometimes explore the causal characteristics of problems (as well as solutions) during an NLP training course, means that trainees may find themselves in a vulnerable situation where painful and potentially difficult material comes to the surface. Unusual instances of this nature are handled in a caring and sensitive manner. However, we are not psychotherapists and deep rooted issues may need to be self-referred to the appropriate professionals. It must be made clear beforehand that the objective of the training course is learning and not personal therapy.
Admission to LeadingNLP Practitioner training is subject to either 1-2-1 meeting or a pre-course telephone call to ensure the course content is suitable to your needs and outcomes and as importantly, that LeadingNLP trainers / facilitators have the necessary skills / facilities to meet your needs (LeadingNLP reserves the right to accept / decline course admission).
Participation in such training requires all parties to be assured that they are up to the rigour, and challenge, that such a potentially transformative experience can bring. Participants are therefore advised to consider and declare any medical condition, thoughts, or state of mind that may be off relevance. Examples of such conditions might include:
a) Depression; b) Mental Illness; c) Heart Conditions; d) Epilepsy; e) Personality disorder; f) Or any other condition you might consider appropriate to disclose.
Please note that as a responsible provider we have a range of supporting documentation including learning and participant agreements which require reading, agreement and signing prior to accessing the programmes.
2. Personal development information including recommended reading material.
Whilst it’s not a requirement on 10 and 12 day courses, LeadingNLP recommends that participants prepare to optimise their training experience through some pre-course reading, and or participation in an Introduction to NLP event such as those delivered by LeadingNLP. 8 day practitioner and Master Practitioner training requires some home study and pre-learning.
Like most things in life we generally have varied reading styles and preferences,
so I have recommended a range of practitioner books that will appeal to different
people. LeadingNLP also has a considerable reference library of material that can
be made available.
Practice, practice and more practice is what make for a competent
NLP Practitioner. We strongly encourage you to locate and actively participate in
a local NLP practice group and apply the skills in every day life. We offer one such
established NLP practice group in Walsall, and others can be located from the ANLP
website.
Supervision. If you are looking to generate income from NLP we recommend supervision from an appropriately experienced NLP Master Practitioner or trainer. LeadingNLP offers supervision arrangements and we are happy to offer informal advice in this area.
3. Code of ethics and practice for NLP Practitioners
NLP is a powerful methodology and as such we require all participants to agree to be bound by the following professional code of ethics as promoted by the Association of Neuro Linguistic Programming (ANLP). We reserve the right to cancel certification where individuals are deemed to be non compliant with the code of practice and its ethical application.

Important Notes: We take great pride in delivering an outstanding learning experience
to ‘all’ participants. In order to do this we have to balance time and resources
fairly across all participants. You will be required to understand, adopt and behave
in accordance with the "pre-suppositions of NLP" throughout the training (as are
we). These represent the operating beliefs of NLP and were modelled from highly effective
and ecological communicators. Feel free to ask for a copy before the training begins.
In
exceptional circumstances, we reserve the right to terminate the training of an individual/s.
In the case of an individual this would be the case of last resort. This is considered
highly unlikely as we always endeavour to adopt a 'do whatever it takes attitude' to
ensure everyone secures their outcomes.
Where required, we will abide by ANLP Trainer
guidelines and adhere to their prevailing complaints procedure.

7. Certification criteria and assessment methods used during training.
Assessment is integrated into and conducted throughout the programme. It’s conducted
in a structured low key professional manner and provides the basis for good healthy
participant feedback. Key assessment components are based upon:
1) Observation throughout
programme, on-going assistant peer & self assessment.
2) Completion of regular reflective
learning journal for which you can expect constructive written feedback (10 day
+ programmes).
3) Active participation in the learning process and involvement completion
of practical activities such as anchoring states.
4) Completion of a multiple
choice knowledge check.
5) Written assignment
6) Incremental demonstration and integration
of competencies throughout the programme.
7) An excellent opportunity to complete
a short modelling exercise and secure feedback on both its design and execution (10
day + programmes).
Criteria:
LeadingNLP Certification is based upon Industry best practice and guidelines. We
are committed to ensuring that your training is enjoyable, of a high standard, and
that you successfully complete your training journey, knowing your final competency
levels are at least equal to, or higher that of other comparable training programmes.
It
is worth noting that LeadingNLP utilises a process of continual "sensory specific"
constructive feedback for students. This method ensures all students receive "rich"
feedback on their developing competencies, and where appropriate, areas for continued
development. We will where / if required, provide additional guidance to ensure students
address any "transitional" weakness's and in so doing can feel confident about securing
certification on completion of training.
It should be pointed out that there is no “one”, universally, or even nationally
recognised NLP accreditation procedure, qualification or standard within what is
a self governing and unregulated industry. My personal journey to become an NLP Trainer
has taken many years culminating in NLP Trainer Training and certification with John
Seymour the longest established NLP Trainers and author in the UK. LeadingNLP trainers
are also registered as NLP trainers with the Association of NLP.
LeadingNLP accreditation
requires you to:
1) Attend and actively participate for the full duration of the training.
a) Should you not be able to participate for one or more days, you will be provided with the opportunity to attend the relevant module on a subsequent training event.
b) Should something happen that inhibited your availability for two or more days, we would normally offer you the option to attend the next available full training. (We will not however accept a financial liability to do so)
2) Attendance for the final two day is mandatory, as this will include final assessment and may be attended by an external verifier.
3) Demonstration of knowledge as demonstrated within a multiple choice questionnaire.
4) On-going demonstration of your gradual integration of competencies throughout the programme.
5) Completion of reflective learning journals for each weekend (excluding final) and a small "modelling" project (10 day+ programmes).
6) On-going tutor observation of your incremental application and integration of NLP competencies, including the presuppositions of NLP introduced early in the programme
7) Your active programme participation and supporting of fellow learners.
The LeadingNLP certification criterion is based upon industry best practice. Participants
should note that certification is based upon your ability to demonstrate the acquisition
and integration of competencies. It is not an attendance certificate.
Ultimately LeadingNLP
offers two levels of certification on completion of NLP Practitioner Training. (Your
post course registration with the ANLP is optional and unless agreed in writing,
at extra cost)
1) LeadingNLP ‘NLP Practitioner’ (or Master) Certificate
2) LeadingNLP Provisional
NLP Practitioner Certificate: Supported by detailed feedback on actions required
for conversion.
8. Post training development and re-assessment (if required)
1) In the same manner in which LeadingNLP commits itself to facilitating the success of its students, it remains the learner’s responsibility to prepare for effective participation in the accreditation process. Our process of on-going evaluation and support means that all participants will be fully aware of any areas requiring development well in advance of final assessment. In the unlikely event that a participant has not "yet" reached the required standard by the end of the programme, they will be given 1:1 feedback regarding areas for continued development, and be invited back to participate in selected sessions on the following training. Reassessment will be informal. Whilst we reserve the right to make an additional charge, we would only do so where we incur notable additional time / costs.
2) Participation and reaching the standard required to be certified is just the beginning of your NLP journey. Embedding and developing NLP competencies is enhanced as you consciously commit to apply it to all areas of life. The multi-faceted nature means that each and every component, tool, skills, attitude, belief, technique etc. interacts with every other one. Converting theory into practice, requires practice, and the application of “there is no such thing as failure, only feedback”, which as NLP practitioners will know, is one of the NLP presuppositions.
3) LeadingNLP recommends that you take advantage and participate in one of the NLP practice groups that run throughout the country. You will meet other like-minded people committed to furthering their competencies. LeadingNLP provides one such group in Walsall for NLP Practitioners. This is usually run on a monthly basis.
9. Equal Opportunities
