BLUE OWL HYPNOTHERAPY - Connect with your inner wisdom and create your true potential
Hypnotherapy Diploma Correspondence Course
 
The course is a home study correspondence course with practical training days, encompassing all you need to know to be able to practice as a professional Hypnotherapist - once you have obtained your Diploma.  The course is also suitable for self-development and for those wishing to learn more about themselves in depth.   It is a fascinating course of study.
 
By its very nature, the course is designed to allow you to train at your own speed - allowing for it to fit in with your busy schedule.  There are 16 workshops over the space of sixteen months and alongside each workshop there will be a correspondence module to be completed.  
 
The training days will be held on a Sunday (the third Sunday in each month) to fit in with work and family commitments.  The course will commence in November 2011.  Places are limited to six people to allow you to get the most out of the course.
