4-Day Introductory NLP Diploma Course… Empower Yourself... Empower Your Clients...
With Pam Rigden, NLP Master Practitioner, Coach and Trainer

This 4-Day Course is certified by the International NLP Trainers Association (INLPTA). The INLPTA is a worldwide Association of professional NLP Trainers and Master Trainers who are dedicated to establishing and maintaining the highest quality standards in NLP Training.

What you will learn during the 4-Day Introduction:
• How to coach your client rather than instruct; this will be a theme that runs throughout the entire training

• How to identify the underlying structures and patterns in your client’s thinking using ‘logical levels’ (environment, behaviour, capability, beliefs and values, identity, beyond identity)

• How to establish rapport with your client and work at their pace

• How to help your client set a positive outcome frame during the induction process – an essential element of goal setting which complements the more familiar SMART approach

• How to use time line work as a motivational tool to help your clients create a healthier future for themselves

• How to help clients give up negative behaviors (bad habits) such as over eating, smoking and procrastination

• How to use techniques such as ‘Circle of Excellence’ to empower your clients and motivate them toward their goals.

The training is experiential and you will be required to practice all of the techniques with course participants. As such, you will have the added benefit of being able to use the training for your own personal development/performance and we encourage you to do so.

“This course enhanced my self awareness in a way I have never before experienced. Pam’s knowledge and ability to present NLP theory and apply it practically was inspiring. She is patient and supportive which made me feel very comfortable learning the techniques and sharing their effect on me personally. I am applying these new skills in my communications with colleagues and friends and am seeing the positive impacts on others. Regardless of your calling within the fitness and health industry this diploma course will better enable you to understand and deal with your client’s view of the world and their place in it. This understanding will enhance your ability to ensure that the goals sought after by your clients are more likely to be achieved”
