Course Length
To satisfy all possible interest areas, the school recognizes that some applicants are interested in hypnosis in terms of personal improvement and dynamics. Others, only to the extent of being able to help, or be of service to those around them, as in the family, or using hypnotic skills as a part of their present profession. Others, of course, intend to develop a career in helping people.
For this reason, we offer the course in three parts. Each of the respective three parts is taught in two weekends. This schedule allows a student to obtain classroom instruction and complete Directed Independent Study within a period of two weekends. The total training is 140 hours and will cover a time of three calendar months.
Graduation and Certification
After the successful completion of all four segments, each graduate is issued a Certificate of Completion and can use the professional designation Ht (Hypnotherapist) .
You are then
eligible for certification through IMDHA
(International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association) and
IACT (International Association of Counselors and Therapists). The
IMDHA certification examination is proctored on your last day of class at no
additional fee. After successfully passing the certification examination you
will be entitled to use the professional designation
C. Ht (Certified Hypnotherapist).
Tuition:
In an effort to make
the program more affordable, students are allowed
12-moinths to complete the program without incurring additional charges or additional time requirements,
due to the increase in

Please note: IMDHA has raised the hours for February 2010. The new requirement is 140 hours, instead of the 120 hours of class time. This will require the school to add two more days and raise the tuition appropriately. IMDHA will continue to raise the minimum hours, 20 more hours each year for 5 years, by 2015 the minimum class time will be 220 class hours. We have much material to present for the additional hours each year. For February 2010 we will add two days of Pain Management. This class will be available to previous students to attend for CEU credits.
