NLP Certifications

NLP Certifications

Three levels of certification

Certification is the standard term for graduation from a program that provides training in the skills, practices and principles of NLP. It’s the smallest unit of training that provides skill development so that you can manage yourself and others more effectively and more flexibly.

NLP Canada Training offers certification at the Practitioner, Master Practitioner and Trainer levels. The Practitioner certification is open to all; the Master Practitioner certification requires NLP Certification from NLP Canada Training or another institution. Trainer certification is an apprenticeship program and is offered by invitation only to NLP Canada Training certified Master Practitioners.

All NLP Certifications are currently offered online by Zoom.

Is Online As Good As In-Person Training?

Our online certification training offers the same level of skill development as our in-person training with several advantages:
1) your learning is anchored to your own space so you are more likely to use it;
2) you can easily join future sessions to continue to develop your skills
3) we find people connect and focus as well or better than they do in person.
And there’s a bonus: training with us online will improve your state and performance in on-line meetings.

The training you do is always better than the training you put off. The training you practice is always better than training you do once and forget. Online makes it easier to train and easier to practice. And that makes our graduates better.

The NLP Practitioner Certification

This is where you start to develop the core skills of NLP. You learn to observe and manage your own thoughts and feelings, recognize motivation and patterns in the behaviours of others, and set up your use of words so that you can be more effective and more confident. Certification requires that you complete all 8 days of training. You’ll be more aware of your own states and the emotions of those around you. You’ll make better choices and adapt better to new circumstances. And you’ll have more choices and flexibility in leading others.

Certification dates are listed below. We run different configurations of days to suit your schedule and requirements.

The NLP Master Practitioner Certification

This is training for people who want to keep their heads and keep moving towards their goals, no matter the circumstances. If you want to know that you will maintain your mindset and your leadership under difficult conditions, you need 2 things: 1) the skill to adapt your state to your circumstances and 2) the perspective that allows you to observe and manage opportunities most people don’t see.

The Master Practitioner course builds rock solid confidence and determined optimism. It also introduces more complex framing, strategies and narratives, building on the skills learned in the practitioner certification.

If you are a coach, trainer or leader, this course starts you on the path to excellence. Certification requires that you complete 6 days of online training.

Will My Certification Be Recognized?

There is no governing body for NLP. There are many different streams flowing from the work of the original developers. Our certification is not affiliated with any other institution because 1) there are no recognized standards for training and 2) most trainings include practices that are not aligned with current science on how the brain/body/mind system works.

NLP certification represents your work to develop a skillset. It is not a credential and NLP is not a profession (no matter who trains it). When you certify with NLP Canada Training, you stand with hundreds of other practitioners who respect the work we do to ensure that our training is current and evolving.

The NLP Practitioner Certification Details and Pricing

This 8 day training runs live on Zoom, scheduled to be accessible in all North American time zones. You’ll become more self-aware, overcome internal blocks and barriers, and collaborate and lead better. It’s a uniquely effective way to deliver soft skills development in emotional intelligence, critical thinking, decision making and communication.

What is NLP?

Neurolinguistic programming (NLP) is a toolkit for learning, development and change. It was developed in the 1970s as a practical way to help people gain better choices about their states, goals and relationships. Training in NLP involves working through a series of exercises to improve awareness, develop new habits in thinking and communication, and set motivating goals.

Is Now the Right Time for You?

Most people study NLP because they are stuck. You might be stuck with emotions or beliefs that aren’t helping you move forward. You might be stuck because you know it’s time to make a choice and you don’t know how to choose. Or you might be stuck because you’ve started a new job or project and you know that you need better soft skills to make the impact you want to make.

You could wait. . . and stay stuck for much longer. Or you could decide to make a difference now so that you feel better and do better without the wait.

Customized Payment Plans

Does the fee for the course seem like a mountain? Carve it down into smaller steps. We’ll work with you to develop a payment plan you can manage. And there are no extra interest charges or fees as long as you make your payments regularly.

What Will You Learn?

The purpose of the NLP Practitioner certification is to develop the set of skills necessary to recognize how people create the results they get. This involves improved self-awareness, goal setting, taking action and responding to feedback, and engaging and influencing other people.

Key Skills Developed

Self-Management

Awareness

Communication

Recognize & Change States

Sensory coding

Emotional intelligence

Manage Stress

3 Perceptual positions

Rapport

Set Eective Goals

Framing

Language of agreement

How Will You Learn?

The only way to develop skills is to practice, get feedback, and practice again. The core of this course is a brief explanation of each exercise, followed by an opportunity to do the exercise (usually twice in dierent roles) and then get feedback on what worked before you move to the next exercise. We work live on Zoom and you will spend most of your time in a breakout space with one or two other people. We developed a schedule that keeps your attention fresh and focused throughout the day.

What Results Can You Expect?

During the course, people often experience some confusion. That’s not a problem: it’s a sign that they are quickly assimilating new thinking. As the confusion settles, people feel more confident and more motivated. Many people report that they become very busy and that they achieve things they have been putting off or things they expected to take much longer to achieve. People also report improved relationships: they have learned to notice their feelings and expectations and make adjustments in difficult conversations.

The NLP Master Practitioner Certification Details and Pricing

This 6 day training runs live on Zoom, scheduled to be accessible in all North American time zones. In the Master Practitioner certification, a small group of participants goes through a rigorous process that uses the core skills of NLP to build confidence and commitment to your goals whatever your circumstances. You learn to identify, apply, or transform patterns of thought and behaviour more accurately and with more flexibility.

What is NLP?

Neurolinguistic programming (NLP) is a toolkit for learning, development and change. It was developed in the 1970s as a practical way to help people gain better choices about their states, goals and relationships. Training in NLP involves working through a series of exercises to improve awareness, develop new habits in thinking and communication, and set motivating goals.

At the Master Practitioner level, NLP is a toolkit for recognizing complex patterns of thought, emotion and action that can be stabilized, combined or changed in real time. A master recognizes opportunities in a situation and uses them to move relentlessly toward their intention for that situation.

Is Now the Right Time for You?

If you are thinking about the Master Practitioner course, this is probably the right time for you. People tend to “wait” until they feel they have already mastered the material in the practitioner course. It’s better to trust your instinct and layer in the more complex techniques of the Master practitioner course as soon as you are curious about them. You’ll gain the full toolkit and then practice until the use of the tools becomes second nature.
